I want to replace the worn seat covers with new, and need recommended sources.

I used Iggee on my driver's seat. It started to show wear in about 2-3 years. I may still have one leftover. It's tan and for the standard seats.

Bimmer,
can you give me some info on the covers you sell? Are they slip over covers, or do I need to peel off the old leather and replace with new covers?

This guy is the man. Extreme quality.

I got new covers from leatherseats.com, and I'm very happy with them. They look factory, fit is perfect, and I was able to pick my own colors and materials. Highly recommended. I've had them three years, and they are wearing very well. Still look fresh.

Are those covers slip over or did you remove the old leather and install them. It might be nice to replace the foam cushions for a softer seat.

[SounderMN]

They are not slip covers. You take off the old and put on new. Get a steamer to refresh the cushions. They have a video to show you how on the site. And put slapstick over the foam before you pill the covers on. It makes it all slide easier. You con pull the plastic out when done.

Of course, they are replacement covers so you remove the old worn covers and have my new ones installed. We have many options beyond the normal leather including seude bolsters with M fabrics like other '90s and early '00s BMW M cars received.

Nice... Looks like a good tight fit... I like the breathability part too. Do they slip over your seats or do you have to take the seat apart? Have they developed any wear?

If you want perfect match OEM quality replacement skins, hands down the best.

Iggee seat covers slip over the existing. You do have to remove the seats for a good fit. Mine are about a year old now and still look great. A really tight fit. They don’t slide around like other covers do. 949E2B34-8B07-417C-8E49-9688FA81964A.jpg949E2B34-8B07-417C-8E49-9688FA81964A.jpg

Here is a picture of mine from LeatherSeats.com. I picked custom colors, obviously. But, I have M seats, and I chose to modify them and not have the standard cross-stitching. Custom design is one nice feature that LS offers.

It looks like the grey in the covers matches your interior. Did you get Iggee to match the color of your interior, or did you replace your other interior leather, or just get lucky that everything matched? My concern is that they only show a dark blue option on their website that will clash with my 'topaz blue' leather interior. I wonder if they can possibly color-match?

[MPKaier]

It was just a lucky match. I ordered online and was hoping that the color online was correct, because online it certainly looked like a match. It matched pretty darn good. What really looks custom is that Iggee uses the same mesh fabric in a mesh summer driving cap that I happen to have.

How hard or easy are iggee covers to install to get a really good fit? Is it REALLY A DIY JOB
