    Has anyone had any luck with finding seat covers for Prius V (with the rear armrest)? I don't like leather, so I've been looking on places like ebay that have oodles of seat cover options, but I'm coming up short one rear seat covers that can a rear armrest option. Thanks!

    I really like Clazzio. Have them in our liftback and our v (wagon).

    Here is a pic of them from my Prius V (wagon) thread ( towards the bottom of the post ) :

    These are the vinyl set and people honestly think they are factory installed. However, they DO take quite some time to install properly.

    Wow, they do look factory. They look like they're made out of leather, but they're vinyl on your V? They look wicked sharp!

    Yep they are the vinyl set. However, they certainly are more of a premium vinyl product vs what I have seen in the past. They kind of remind me of Toyota's 'softex'...however, softex is probably somewhat higher quality. The Clazzio covers also have a 1/2" or so of 'memory foam' padding.

    BTW - the site that comes up most frequently via google is a site called 'clazzio dot com'. However, I got my set on Ebay. Apparently there are multiple different 'distributors' of clazzio seat covers and 'clazzio dot com' is but one of them.

    If I remember correctly, this is the 'official' site : All PVC Type | Clazzio

    How do the seat covers impact the operation of the seat mounted side airbags?

    Most seat covers have cutouts/flaps over the side airbags. Even if they didn't, I have no doubt that the airbag charge would blow right through the seatcover and or seams easily.

    I have Clazzio seat covers on my Prius 2. First let me say they are a bitch to install. They should be paying me for pics because mine are almost perfectly installed. There are many who have tried and failed, some miserably. They look like they are factory installed and they are extremely durable showing no wear. I got mine on Ebay probably 6 years ago.

    They have very reduced stitching on the sides of the seat where an air bag would deploy. Many aftermarket covers will stop the air bag from functioning properly.

    It is important to note the factory upholstery is in fact seat covers. You can usually buy used factory covers on eBay but it has to be a Prius v wagon.
