Default Sheepskin seat covers for LWBs?

Rocky Mountain does not have a pattern and can’t make covers for the seat.

Anyone have a source?

PS feel free to mock

They are just so comfortable. I have them in all my vehicles except the Jag because I have not figured out how to get the headrest off and I rarely drive it.

You should call Porsche Exclusive and ask.
I'm sure they could use a good laugh!

The stripes will no longer be an issue.

No heat in LWBs. Can’t feel it much through sheepskin anyway.

And I am enjoying the season, I spent four hours driving around in my 993 C4 cab today (with sheepskin cover in matching blue, but no snow tires as it came with Michelin allseasons which I rather like). As long as there is no salt or snow, I like driving.

I think it looks good. Went with the vest type and fitted them upside down with what was supposed to be the bottom straps through the harness holes.

Because that would be less grippy for track work. Imagine rolling across the beads in every corner. That actually sounded nice - I need a back massage
