Inquiring minds are just wondering why you didn't complete the look with seatbelts and a steering wheel cover?

Fuzzy seat covers are frowned on in the US, but I could dig these for my wife's X5. They look so comfy and nicely made. Don't listen to others. They're just jealous.

Aside from the aesthetics, they are very comfortable especially in our current winter climate as they don't feel freezing cold when getting in.

Perhaps it's more an Australian thing!

Thanks all
Hi Gapmatt:

Question for you? I ordered a new BMW 330i and the seats are really super uncomfortable on my skinny tushy/coccyx. I’m just about to give up and sell my beautiful car, and saw your post.

Would you say that a sheepskin cover might help provide some soft relief on the pressure points of sitting? I know some folks have used them for that on their BMW motorcycles.

Thanks for your, and anyone’s input, because I’ve tried a bunch of foam cushions that just made things worse.

I am kind of desperate at this point.

I used to see sheepskins on the seats of commercial pilots, and figured they were there for long range comfort. But they should be a natural colour, otherwise it belongs in Bed, Bath and Beyond.

Bruv I live in Winnipeg in all 7 x5s I’ve owned I’ve never done this. I’d rather freeze my cheeks rather than be caught with these in my car. To each their own I guess
