Our cars are one of the most expensive items we own. Whether yours is new or used, it's not cheap. When you buy a car, you look at the car and the deal far more closely than you might a pair of shoes! Most people want to keep their car running dependably and looking good. Changing the oil every 3,000 miles, getting tune-ups and maintenance work done on schedule all contribute to the dependability factor. Where most of us fall down is in maintaining the interior. In addition to having an outdoor car cover to protect your asset, you should also do yourself a favor and invest in car seat covers. There are two major reasons why this investment makes good sense.

First, the vinyl, fabric or leather seat covers that come from the manufacturer look nice on the showroom floor. However, once exposed to the elements?the heat of summer, or the cold temps of winter, it doesn't matter?those nice looking car seat covers begin to gradually deteriorate, with every hour they're exposed to sun, heat and icy temperatures. The second reason you'd do well to invest in these car accessories is for added comfort while driving your car. Some of the covers that come standard on your car are subject to heating and cooling. Haven't you come out of the grocery store, on a hot summer's day and scorched the back of your legs on a hot seat? Ouch! When the weather's chilly, you also don't want to have the same experience in reverse! The right car seat covers eliminate both these problems, while protecting your factory seat covers from stains, tears and burns, if you have a smoker in your household. If you've got kids riding in your car, the necessity for seat covers is a no-brainer!

Every auto accessory store stocks a plentiful supply of car seat covers, in a range of prices and materials. Most are usually made to fit several models. Just let the clerk know what the make and model of your car is to be directed to those which will fit your car.

You'll find plain fabric, sheepskin look types, soft velours and sturdier fabrics in plaid designs, which are popular with pickup truck owners. Yes, the variety available does allow you to make a fashion statement with your vehicle! Plain or fancy, sturdy or soft, patterned or of a solid color, you'll be able to find a set of car seat covers which enhances the look of your car, showing a little 'personality', while acquiring a little extra comfort to boot.

Fashion and comfort notwithstanding, the biggest advantage to installing car seat covers is demonstrated when you decide to sell your car. Those pristine seats underneath will boost that resale value considerably!
