Now that I`ve turned my son`s car seat around to front facing, I need to find a good seat back kick protector. So far I`ve been removing his shoes every time he gets in / slipping them back on when he gets out... but that`s getting old - does anyone have recommendations on a seat back kick protector? All the ones I`ve seen so far don`t appear to be up to Autopia standards.... TIA.

Best thing I used was a neoprene seat cover, Costco has them Coverking Custom Fit Seat Covers 3 Different Materials To Choose From
How about looking at this outside the box. Make some Plush MF booties that slip over the boys shoes?
I yelled at mine enough and now knows to keep his feet off the seat lol
I`m teaching him how to clean the car so now he seems to understand
Thanks for the suggestion - neoprene covers did cross my mind. $99 might be a hard sell to the wifey... But you used and liked the coverking ones from Costco?Quote:

I`m using these and haven`t had an issue:

I like the elastic straps with the hooks for the bottom that allow me to adjust how tight it fits to the seat. They also provide a wrap around strap if you don`t want to use the hooks.

I have had neoprene but not like the Costco brand, they work well, I used a Scotch guard for further protection

But in your photo the kick mat looks flush with the seat back only. Is the Amazon photo not accurate? My son is tall for his age and has no trouble resting he feet pretty high up on the seat.
Another good call - I`ve been planning on scotch guarding the seats for a while. Now I just need to remember to do the backs too ;) Thanks!Quote:

Cool, thank you. I just ordered a set. I really like the ability to hook the protector to the seat base in order to keep the mat in place vs the elastic band around the front seat - that gets uncomfortable for the driver or passenger`s lower back and has the potential to damage the seat.Quote:
