Waterproof seat covers

[california kid]

.with this problem bought a set of vw waterproof seat covers for our 2014 Cali , from dealership, only to find that they do not fit the front headrests as this was a upgrade from 2013. Question is can anyone inform me if they are made in the uk and possible have the phone no for the manufactures , as I would like to contact them with a view to have them send some material for my wife to extend these covers. ( she is very good with a sewing machine ) apparently the suppliers are aware of this problem but to date have not made covers to suit later model California's. The guy at dealership was not aware of this problem until I made the enquiry today! :doh

They are made by Auto Kit, also known as Inka. if you call them ask for Martin.

As far as I was aware they had sorted out this problem on the ones purchased direct, possibly the dealer had some old stock?

Thanks Martin . As it happens I sent them a e.mail last night , but will take your advise and call them this morning

Which bit don't they fit?
Ours are going strong after three years of use (we have kids too) - although the cab seat ones do like to come off quite regularly.
We used Inka for the rear mattress; all seats and mattress look like brand new underneath. An essential purchase IMO!

Hi, It is only the front head rest covers that do not fit, because vw changed design from 2013 , I will be phoning inka this morning, from there response back to dealership who have been very positive re this issue, just annoying dealership is over hours drive not the best place to drive to , thankyou for your interest

Glad you got it sorted, I notice you purchased these through the dealer, you could of saved around £50-60 by buying them via the VIP Membership discount.
