GQ Seat Covers

Post by Grant »

Hi Gents,

If you are an owner of the GQ range, you will know how I struggled to get seat covers for it. I visited Uthuli, and they measured up the seats for a pattern. A week later they were fitted and at a great price.

Visit www.uthuli.co.za

And to add to G-Man's question: Did they make 2 separate covers for the second row so you can fold the seats down independently?

Morning "G-MAN"


They had to measure up my Patrol. This was done on a Monday and by Friday they were fitted. If you have a 95 - 97 GQ with a 50/50 split bench at the rear, they have the pattern. You will then have to decide on the colour. I would suggest that you call them. I found them very helpfull so you should have nop problem.



I will get some pics on this post tonight.

Hi Gents,

Sorry for the delay. I had pockets fitted to the front of both the front and rear seats. In addition passport pockets were fitted to the inside of the two front seats.

Your investment looks good.

Are the covers in two pieces, one for the seat and one for the back? I purchased a set that was one piece covers and found it was slightly too short so I gave it back. :doh:

Hi Ratau

Covers are two piece. When they made them, they did not take the piping into account. This has made niece and tight.

Hi Grant,

Nice meeting you at Frontrunner two weeks ago. Followed your advice, joined Patrol Club and I am collecting my seat covers this afternoon from Uthuli. Spoke to the guys at Onca and apparently they are developing a bull bar for you. Said they would do two and I may purchase one as well. Have they spoken price to you?

Regards,
Piet
