    I noticed some on Egay the other day. From memory they were cheap as chips (like $5 or thereabouts). I'm thinking of getting a few just to have in case I ever need them.

    Do you have side airbags in your seats? pretty sure most VZ's do and apparently any seat covers that don't accommodate this (throw overs etc.) make your warranty etc. invalid in result of an accident. Just my 2c

    Re airbags, that's correct. Most VZ sedans/wagons since 2004 have side-airbags in the front seats, so seat covers must not be fitted unless those specifically able to accommodate airbags (lighter fabric on sides with specialist stitching). Sheepies will accommodate airbags but I have not seen any simple and cheap throw-overs that can. Probably best not to take the risk and only get something which will not impede SRS deployment.

    can also really hurt you if a side airbag deploys and a seat cover holds it in, because all that force has to go somewhere, and if it cant shoot out towards the B pillar like its supposed to there's only one other way for the bag to inflate really
