I have a 2012 Crew with black leather and 2nd row captains chairs w armrest. I have a couple of kids and I want to protect the 2nd row captains from wear/tear and car seats that dig into the leather leaving the infamous indentation. We currently have car seat mat covers but they still expose too much of the leather seat for my taste. Anyone out there have some quality seat covers installed on their 2nd row captains? If so, looking for pics and your feedback on the end result.
Front covers would be nice too but ideally I'm looking for the 2nd row captains.
Did you ever find any? For same reason I would like to cover rear captains. Don't think I would cover front seat as that kinda defeats the purpose of paying for leather seats.

I purchased a set of bucket seat covers from O'Reilly Auto Parts. I think they cost around $25. The brand name is Auto Expressions. With a little modifications they work perfectly. I had to cut 4 small holes in each seat cover. (2) on the lower back to expose the 2 clips you attach the car seat to. (1) on the headrest area to feed the top car seat safety harness through that attaches to the back of the captain chair. (1) on the side to attach the armrest.
*Note: I removed the armrest prior to putting on the seat covers. Put the seat covers on, cut the hole for the armrest screw hole, then put the armrest back on. Simple and quick.
Thanks for the very detailed pics. I bought a car seat protector mat but like you said still too much of the leather is exposed to indentations, sticky fingers, spills and crushed cheerios.
