Default XK8 Front seat covers

Does anyone have any suggestions on nice front seat covers for my 2005 XK8? I want some that will fit them like a glove! :-)
Thanks,
Dan

One thing to consider is the operation of the side airbags.
Some people care and some do not. Some insurance carriers might not be happy with seat covers that do not allow for airbag deployment.

Jaguar issued a TSB (501-16) when the XJ8 sedan was introduced with the side airbags as a reminder for consideration. Up until then it had been a non-issue.

How about a single drivers seat cover, basic to protect the condition and color (Dove i think, light gray) when ever i drive. I had one in my last Corvette (light tan) it pretty much stayed on, served its purpose well and did not harm the seat which is important. Any thoughts, I've looked a lot with no success.
thanks
Mark

As long as you do NOT care about the side airbag, you can install a cover.

Is it stamped in the seat where the side airbag is? I was not aware I had them. Thanks
