Has anyone installed seatcovers on E450?

I have a Sunseeker 3010 on the E450 chassis with the base fabric cockpit seats. The fuzzy fabric on the back and sides of the seats is a dog hair magnet and almost impossible to clean. I think I spend as much time trying to vacuum the seats as the rest of coach combined.

Does anyone else have this problem? If so, what did you do about it? I'm thinking of buying seat covers, but would like to hear from others who may have also purchased them.

Here is a link to the company we have used, They have made to sets for us, 1 for our Chevy MH and on for our
Ford MH. Both have been perfect fits, they wear great and clean up great, We have gone with the Scottsdale design, full custom, can even get the map pockets on the seat backs for storage. Hope this helps.

Wow. Price is a little higher than I expected. Are you happy with yours? I wonder how easily dog hair would vacuum off them. Do you travel with pets?

Thanks for the link.

We have used Seatcovers Unlimited "Scottsdale" series in our last two pickups, the E450 Sunseeker and now have ordered a set for our 2012 Jeep Liberty toad. They look great, very comfortable, fit extremely well and wear like iron. We recently had our Silverado serviced and the mechanic commented on how comfortable they were and how well they looked. We have use these for over three years of daily use.

The pictures are of the Sunseeker. We chose to have the custom made option and included the seat belt pads, arm rests, and map pockets. As of 2015, they have the patterns. I have installed all of the sets we purchased from them and it was pretty straight forward. Arm rests and separate head rests are probably the most difficult, but they will fit and fit extremely well.

These are great people to do business with.

Pen Joe, they look great. I'm going to check them out. Looks like you had covers made for the dinette also?

Appreciate the compliment! These really do add class and comfort to the cab.
Seat Covers Unlimited emailed a 10% off after we just installed them on our Jeep Liberty. I could not bring up the email, so it likely got permanently deleted. If you call them and bring it up, they may honor it.

As for the dinette, that' is our temporary handiwork. We try to cover our upholstery to protect it from wear. It doesn't look like we will get to the permanent covers until we get back from our next trip.

DW made a set for a MH when the kids were young. When we sold it 11 years later, the original upholstery material still looked new. She sewed in a moisture barrier to protect it from spills.

PenJoe, Thanks so much for posting pictures and sharing the information on the seat covers. I've been shopping tirelessly for some in my Sunseeker that wasn't dirt cheap or overpriced. I think I'll give them a try...
