Seat Covers?

Has anyone bought custom seat covers for the rear seats? I have 2 young children and would like to install seat covers, but haven't found a vendor supplying them for the F25. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I'm wondering the same thing. I asked my mom if she can sew me some, but she was reluctant...The BMW Universal rear seat cover looks pretty nice specially to hold dogs..but it's so expensive...

I agree. The official rear seat cover looks amazing but the price is crazy.

Asked dealer about BMW original backseat cover, which cost about $250 in the US. I thought well maybe it will be about $300 over here, but no, they quoted $700 for it
I understand about the high taxes jacking up the car price, but for accessories? it's genuinely a rip off
So I had it custom made using synthetic leather, cost me about $120, complete with detachable side door protector and detachable center section to allow air circulation from the rear a/c vent.

Yes i'm glad he seems to like it. It also has extra padding on the cover for extra comfort.
