I’ve been waiting a year expecting that 2nd skin covers will be updated to have proper slits to match the access points on the seats themselves. But alas, no such luck.

I’ve contacted the shop by message and had 2 responses. One saying no isofix comparability and another saying that you’ve always been able to put in isofix seats as the 2nd skin covers and backs are separate and you can just lift the back up a bit.

Does anyone do this and is it really a viable option? We only have the child seats in the van if we take the grandkids out for the day in the van, so most of the time we will want the covers to look smart and look like second skins.

Any comments/advice would be appreciated and photos an extra bonus.
 
Good morning Elly please let me clarify the situation The isofix points have now changed from being on the back of the seat to being on the front brandrup have now changed the covers to deal with this we are sold out of these until February the new covers will fit all models the old covers only fit the T5 and early T6 with the isofix points at the back here is a link with a picture of the new ones . https://vwcaliforniaclub.com/shop/p...t5-second-skin-for-2-seater-bench-with-isofix . hope this helps

Hi guys. Thanks for the very prompt and helpful reply. It’s actually the GTX Premium covers (I thought they were all called 2nd skin, sorry) that we’re looking at. Is it the same for those?
 
I will check for you in the morning but they should be compatable as we asked for the new batch to include the isofix slots . leave it with me
 
Hi elly I have checked the leather look ones we have and they now include them we are hoping when the GTI ones arrive they do too I will check .

Thanks so much for the fast attention to this. I know it’s not too long now until you get the GTIs in and am happy to wait for a response. If they do have slits I’ll be ordering straight away.

cheers guys, as usual great service and assistance.

Hi guys. I think the Premium GTI Fabric Seat Covers for the Ocean are in stock now. Could you please check for isofix slits and post a photo?
 
The slots for isofix are in the new gti covers but please be quick if you want some as we only have 2 sets left
