I don’t even own a camper, and yet I enjoyed the video :)
I can't believe these seat covers. I was all for leather chairs but these are perfect. It's a bit of an insult to call them seat covers, more like easy fit seat re-upholstery. Love them.
Good job, you two. The new seat covers look really nice.
Brill.Instructional, confidence boosting and fun!
Really enjoyed watching this, thank you for your efforts. Totally different level to your former covers and cost as well, but they now look like OEM seats. You must be chuffed!
Great vid again folks. Shows just how much fun it can be and for the few in a void the proper covers are well made and when you have a new van and a pet who travels the least you can do is protect your investment.
Thanks Paul and you’re quite right. Plus they look awesome 😎
Those seat covers look so nice! I love it!
Fascinating yo watch and well put together. The seat covers look great!
They look awesome! You guys always make us smile 😊 thanks for another brilliant video ✌️
Thanks guys 😍
Beautiful. Almost looks like it came out of the VW factory this way. Perfect.
Hi guys love the new seat covers looks good strong quality covers a least u can protect the sests looks like a good work out as well a least now people who watch your channel will have a idea on how to fit them cover now well done guys all the best.kev
Great vid guys, they look great x
Thanks so much for video - just fitted our premium leather seat covers from same shop. Without your video, we couldnt have managed the 3.5 hours it took us! So pleased with the finished product, though, thanks again.
Wow - those are so nice you'll be wanting seat covers on your seat covers!!!!! - Great vlog as always. - Dude
thanks. getting mine tomorrow, this video has given me a good idea of what it's going to be like!
Those are amazing!! We are excited about getting ourselves some too!
Found you guys whilst looking for how to fit seat covers ;) Subscribed! big thank you
They look really nice
I don't have a campervan as yet but when I do I'm coming round to your and you can put them on for me love the video
Love your channel guys, you are a cool couple and present really well. Bentley is gorgeous too.
You're too kind... thanks :-)
Terrific video folks! Having spent ages looking at these covers on-line and wondering if I could justify circa £400 on them, you have tipped the balance in favour. Happy campervaning :-)
You guys are great , Allan & Anne, New Zealand
Thanks 😊
nice seat covers .
Very smart 👍🏻
Great video, the covers look great and look a bit like the seats in our VW Up! and the new UP! GTI. They don't look like covers. Think I would have used a set of Trim removal tools though on that trim.
Fun fun fun👍🏻
Warning to anyone else doing this! I just sheared off a screw when refitting an arm rest. I assumed it would be ok because, as Sean showed they are very tight to start with. So, now I'll have to look at getting a replacement screw and find a way to remove the stub of screw that's left in!
Quick tip if you wrap the blunt knife with a cloth the serrated part wont leave any marks also opposite thread is called left hand thread :)
Another awesome video...we’ll have to look to see if any VW T4 seat covers available, could do with the GTi logo...may make our bus quicker 🤣.
What does Bentley think of them?
Hi, I'm in the middle of installing my GTI seat covers. Your video is very helpful. One front seat
done! How easily do they stain, and how easy to clean? Have you used
something like Scotchguard for protection?
They look sooo cool! I spotted on the back bench you have Isofix can you still use those? Nice video. Cheers Oliver
Good question... I don’t know anything about ISOFIX I’m afraid so not sure what I’m looking for. The top bit is separate from the bottom bit so I imagine you can still access the ISOFIX brackets but not sure 100%
Cant believe I've just spent 25 minutes watching someone put covers on their seats! What a way to spend the evening. Still, it was interesting, but sadly no Bentley.
Just a heads up guys you can buy what they call trim tools on eBay for around a fiver made of plastic and different shapes for taking plastic trim of and tucking bits in
Fair play to your lidl covers kept your seats clean for 12 month for €15 let’s see how
Long the 400 pound ones
Last great work I’m really tired
Now after watching you
OMG! We are so upset! Your last video was true! You have parted ways with Bentley!
No sign of him helping you in this video, now we need to sob in to our coffee and bacon butties!!!!!
Another enjoyable video, I can't do stuff when I'm hangry.
Wonder if Bentley will do a video of him putting a new cover on his bed.
😬
Hi. Just trying to find these for a 2 seater bench on a VW t6 Beach. Any ideas?
Love gti pattern vw should offer this as standard
Yeah we agree
CaliforniaCamping just had an idea you know the little strap to fold the bed down get some velcro and stick the strap to the seats :)
yeah, the tartan / plaid is very Mk1 Golf GTi ... and that is a good thing
Nothing is standard 😂 would be awesome though
These look incredible! I couldn't find this version in their shop. Any idea if they're willing to sell the fronts separately for us mere mortals with self-converted T6's? =D
May be worth ringing and asking? 😊
They are the “GTi Black” ones by the way 👍
It was midnight and I was too impatient to find out =P Will get in touch with them shortly. And thanks for the model name. Killer videos btw, I think I've watched them all now 😂
Haha that’s brilliant! Thank you so much 😊
You can get plastic trim remove kit from amazon, well done
Can't go wrong with stuff from everything California.. I've got a few things from them,
One thing I don't quite get. I would expect a key reason for having seat covers is that they should be easily removable, either for washing, or that you would put them on for 'dirty' activities, such as camping, and remove otherwise. Clearly, that's not a realistic approach for these ones. That's a disappointment for me. Your Lidl ones are perhaps better suited for on/off use. Thanks, very useful video all the same. (PS. I have an old T25 Westfalia California, but just about to sign for a T6 Ocean).
How are these holding up? We've just fitted the waterproof seat covers to our Cali for now but I think these would be a much better long term solution for us. Obviously you haven't used them much in the last 12 months but, just curious as to whether they're showing their age yet? Cheers
They’ve done amazing. A slight bit of thread has undone but it’s just cosmetic. We’ve been pretty happy with them and we’ve really used them!
@@ABusAndBeyond good news, thank you 👍🏼
Nice seat covers! How come you use seat covers?!
Thanks, just so that we can protect the original seats from the mucky pooch
I've just received a set, yet to put on. After 9 months can you give any comment on how they've stood up to use? Any wear and tear, or anything like beading?
No beading, a few loose threads from the cosmetic stitching but nothing important has come loose.
Have you had any problems or had to readjust since you fitted them?
No, a few of the cosmetic stitches have come loose but nothing big or problematic. You’d be hard pushed to even notice!
Could you please point me in the direction of the instructional video you mention - tried to locate it with no joy - thanks

To those who ask: why do you need seat covers? I've had a new Ocean for 6 months, with the standard seats. They are pale in colour and take up stains frustratingly easily. They even show a stain where I spilled some clean water on them! I've sprayed them thoroughly with Scotch Guard, but seems to make no difference. This is a real disappointment from VW. Why provide such pale seat fabric as standard? I previously owned a Passat with dark seats, which would be much more practical. Hence, I have just bourhg this GTI set.
Hi SL&B Practice make perfect come and fit mine and then you will be expert fitters. plenty tea and tea cakes + Dog chews ATB Glen
It looks like you’ve got a dog guard behind the rear seat. If yes, please let me know what and where from, as I really need something for my dog 👍
Yeah it’s a universal one from Halfords
My seats are really uncomfortable does anyone recommend anything
Ciao, dove si trovano e quanto costano? Grazie!
واو نحن لدينا Californiaxxl
Your videos have so many adverts… 😅 good guide though, many thanks.
This just cost me £400 !!
😂😂😂 sorry
25 minutes on seat covers? Your van is prati'cally' new. What is wrong with the original seats?
We want to keep them new... we have a dog and these covers protect the seats
Well I gathered that. I thought VW seats were indestructible & you can velet them yourself or have it done professionally. I understand that products reviews can be interesting, but 25 minutes. Don't get me wrong, like your vids & I've watched your recent feature film👍so I want you to be positive about my comment.😁
It’s not just a review... it shows people how to fit them
8:33 &......?
upfreaks....... draw strings
Possibly a very cryptic way of asking what my & tattoo is about???
CaliforniaCamping ........ better eyes than me then 😁😁😁👍
yeah.. I was sort of thinking.. & why.
btw, great seat covers, almost better than the original..!!
Please ditch the knives & screw drivers and buy some proper plastic trim removers,They r very cheap!!
It’s a bit late now
