Look for the Airbag tag on the front seats along the seam edge.If it is only for the back, get a dog blanket that will cover the whole seat and you can still run the seatbelts through them. I have it in the back with both baby seats on top. Works a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A seat cover would slightly hinder that process! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConcordeLike Tab said could hinder the bag should it need to deploy.After purchasing some covers and then finding the tag when we were fitting them, looked at getting custom covers made but decided against it. The kids have a rug that's firmly tucked over the back seat. Also got a clear protector for the back of the front seats to keep the kids feet off.D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
