Yes. U-Impress is on the right and U-Burr is on the left. I'm concerned more or less about their maintenance and heating up. Is their quality worth the price tag?

Believe me buddy, every spent penny is gonna give you joy and comfort. Also, purchase a art-leather/venyl cleaner from a reputed brand to keep your covers clean.

Actually the only experience I have with these was the original MGA covers on the Alto. The i10 has fabric covers.

BTW why do we need covers? I never used covers on my Uno & Siena. The original upholstry was quite nice. Most people put seat covers to prevent the original upholstry from getting soiled. But why? So that ........
+ 1 to Peter. Even I have never replaced the original seat covers since I always happen to like the original ones only. Getting it done from Stanley would be altogether different, it gives a whole new look to the car but then the damage on the wallet is always high with a Stanley or Karlsson. Artificial leather doesn't excite me much.

I have finalized on the U-Burr Seat Covers. Depending on the availability, I will install them as soon as possible. Any special tips to remember during the work?

Just 2 things :

1. Insist that the person installing the covers washes hands with soap, you know why!!!!

2. Make sure the seat covers are fastened using the u-bend copper stapler clips and not the regular stapler clips.

All the best, click some installation pics too.

Problem is that none of the dealers have kept U-Burr in Stock. Reliance Zone has even told that this model has been discontinued now.

Getting Autoform Seat Covers of my choice has become quite a task. The latest buzz is that the prices might hike upto Rs.9,000.

It’s confirmed that Autoform has discontinued U-Burr due to wooden finish peeling off prematurely. Now I’m left with the following options:

> Get the U-Impress, which is my second choice after U-Burr. I didn’t like other designs from Autoform.

> Buy the seat covers from Ford itself. My dealer is offering a nice deal. Here's a pic of the design that will be in beige to match with the car’s interiors.

PS: Ford offers warranty only of 6 Months on their own Seat Covers as opposed to Autoform which is 2 Years.

Hi 350Z any idea if the U-impress still in stock hope its not discontinued?
Yes. The U-Impress is still in production.

A couple of PS versions of the above mentioned seat cover (Credits: Fazer). The beige + silver combo doesn’t gel well but the one with wooden finish looks better.

@350Z:
I am using light colored leather seat covers and I'd recommend you to keep away from them for God's sake.
They will get dirty very fastly,even if any person rests his/her ehad on headrests then you will find them catching dirt by the same time itself.
Instead I'd recommend you to go for soemthing like black+silver,just like Fiesta's interior or any other darker shade.

Autoform has introduced a few fresh seat cover designs. U-Cross Plus was the only design that I liked after U-Burr. U-Impress which is still in production looked fairly simple in comparison. So finally placed an order for U-Cross Plus last weekend. The stripes will be in black unlike Grey as in the following image.
