Hi,
trying to install seat covers on my HCHII but i cannot find a way to fold or at least release the backrest cushion to install the covres, but i couldn't find how to do it.
Any help will be appreciated.

I read somewhere there are airbags in the sides of the front seatbacks, and they're compromised (obviously) by seat covers, fwiw.

I've ordered special car seats, that are suitable with airbags, there are open spaces in place where airbag opens.
if you want, a can post pictures, so that you see how it looks like.

Would like to see the pictures . Who makes the covers as well. I have a taffeta white 06 HCH with camel interior. Not easy to keep clean. H

The main difficulty was installing the back seat top cover - took me a while to find out how to remove it (thanks to starman).

The company that makes them - http://www.hadarrosen.com/ , but i think they are only local.....
try to look at store the name of the company that makes good seat covers and talk to them directly, that's what i did, and they told me they make special orders, so the ask couple of questions - car type, seat airbags, and the they sew them especially as you ask.
This is a little expensive, costs like 30$ over the regular price, but worth it - i got all covered, including the back seat and front armrests, and all the 5 headrests.
