Hi All,

New T6.1 California Ocean owner here. I'm trying to get our camper ready for our first trip away in early December and I have purchased some brandrup second skin seat covers. I've watched some videos and seen some photos of the covers in place and they fit really well and look great.

So far I have fitted the headrest covers and the arms and they fit brilliantly. When I fitted the front seat covers (just on the top section of the seat) they still seemed quite baggy and I couldn't get them taut. I read that rotating the seats and fitting them in that position is easier and that the seat covers are sided in the front, however both sides of the covers have an airbag sticker so that doesn't really help me determine which is which and they look identical to me.

Does anyone have any advice in fitting these? Or experience the same issue? Do I just need to use brute strength and pull at the covers more, I can see they are meant to tuck into the plastic trim in the base of the seat, so perhaps I am not pulling them tight enough?

We don't have the electric seats so I have bought the correct covers, as I know they don't fit with electric seats.

Thanks all for any help or advice you can give.
