Has anybody in this channel got the Vinyl seat covers put in their Vibes?

Post by Cubanpete »

Has anybody in this channel got the pontiac Vinyl seat covers Installed/put in their Vibes yet?.... I would be very,very interested in front Vinyl or rugged seat covers with the vibe or vibe GT logo!.......I honestly thought by now GM was going to start popping the accesories for this car, but have seen very little activity in this area.http://www.gmgoodwrench.com/gmgoodwrenc ... 2243878069

I recently picked up the active package. I wanted the rubber mats and the seat covers to protect my back seat from my five year old. It took about 15 minutes each to put them in and get the fit right. The fronts fit pretty good, the back tends to move around a bit and needs to be adjusted occasionally from my son getting in and out. They seem to be of good quality and look decent for seat covers. The passanger seat doesn't fold forward as easily and the back seats seem like they must be folded together instead of split. Though, I am glad I got them, already saved my seats a few times. BTW reading the description of the Active Package you would assume you get the front and rear seat covers, you don't it is the front only. You do get front and rear floor mats. I complained to my dealer that the ad in the brochure was a little deceptive and he agreed. After I made a couple of couple of calls to Pontiac/GM and thanks to a good consumer law in MA they finally decided to give me the rear cover for free.

Do you know if the floor mats are available seperately from the active package? The GM site did not seem to have the big floor mats seperately.

Nick.........my car has winter mats that I bought in november...I also have the bumber guard on my car, I am not interested in the active package just the front and back seat covers..........If you guys have some Catalog numbers and prices that would be excellent in eliminating the guessing game! ... Also like some other guy posted the seat covers in the picture which .....No close up is availble for do look like windbreaker material!

I'll take some pictures tomorrow and get them posted as soon as possible. Though they look it, they are not really windbreaker material more like nylon duffel.
