I have gone into Canadian Tire and looked for seat cover for my 60/40 bench seat while they do seem to have covers they are for straight benches and don’t accommodate for the arm rest / storage area. Does Ford make one for this style of seat or is there one on the market that someone knows of? (I prefer to buy in store not over the net)

saddlemans "surefit" seat covers. well worth the $150. AMAZING fit...these arent those cheesy wal-mart seat covers that slide all over the place. they fit so well that noone thats been in my truck even knows i have seat covers (that was my goal). ive had mine on my truck for about 4 years/30,000 miles and there isnt a single rip or unraveling thread.

Good to know that there is something out there.
Wicked, which one did you go with:
- Deluxe Mohave
- Saddle Blanket
- Deluxe Velvet
- Cambridge Tweed
- Windsor Velour
- All Purpose Real Tree®



Has anyone had any luck with the store purchased ones?

the windsor velour in beige. matches the tan ranger interior perfectly.

like i said before, my goal was to have seat covers to protect the upholstery, but without the look and feel of seat covers. i usually forget they are there untill the topic of seat covers comes up :D

150 sounds expensive.

Ford Ranger seats are not that complex and have similiar design to many other trucks on the road. Many vendors out there offer good material and fit at a reasonable price.

ive seen other seat covers over the 60/40 split before and it looks and rides like crap. they are baggy around the transmission "cutout" in the middle, wrinkled into a ball around the folding armrest, and they slide around.

if you want ghetto, you can use a premade seat cover. if you want something nice, the saddleman covers are worth it IMO.

I have been looking around for a 60/40 bench seat covers that look nice and would fit, I have found nothing.
So I going to order up a set of Saddleman when I have the cash to spair. Sure it is costly but seems to be worth it. Mind you I will keep my eyes open for something still.
