Default Any scooby owners have dogs?

Hi All after cleaning the back of my car again i may be in the market for a new rear seat cover for the car having two boxer dogs that have to get in the car 3 times a week the car gets very hairy quick, i currently have a pets at home cover and i have to tuck it down the back of the seat but then it comes short at the front but the seat still gets filthy.
Are there and scooby specific seat covers?

I bought to cheap fleece blankets from IKEA in a nice blue. The seats were removed, fleeces wrapped around, ends tucked in and bolted back in place.

Cost about £10 and the hairs stick like ****e!

Hi mik
I also suffer from sprogz and dogz.
Just bought a wagon like yours for the missus and didn't realise until I got it home that there are no roofbar mounts

What is the make/model of your roofbars; and where did you get them from?
Thanks
Nice wagon btw

I put ryegrass mix in every year.

The Honey Monsters can do their worst & kids too.

The wee wee stains, I put lava rocks in the water bowl so the Girlie doesn't stain the grass.

And if their really good, they get to go out for a ride in the Scoob.



Regards.

Thanks

The UK spec Hawkeye WRX wagons didn't have roofbars for some reason. Other markets do, and lesser hawkeye wagons do. Go figure (?)

Roofbars - I've posted the info below for approx 4 folks now - you could break the mould and be the first one to say "thanks" if you fancy?

=====================

I've cut and pasted my order details below.

KM345 - KAMEI Delphin: KAMEI Delphin 340 K roof box "carbon design" LEFT side opening no. KM345 (08134511)
TU750 - Foot Pack: Thule Rapid System gutterless feet (4) no. 750
TU1210 - Adapter Kit: Thule Rapid System adapter kit no. 1210
TU869 - Aerobars: Alternative bars (bars only): aluminium bars 869

The only thing missing from the above was the "T-Track adaptors" to allow me to mount the box I bought onto the aerobars ~ my mistake, but they (roofbox.co.uk) admitted they should have noticed when I ordered, and therefore only charged me £5 for them (should have been £10).

If you are buying via roofbox.co.uk (who seem to be very competetive anyway) then click HERE to get a further 10% discount on your order, in addition to the free gifts they tend to throw in

thats the reason i sawpped to a wagon , but halfords do a nifty back seat hamock type cover so it protect the seat seat back , the backs of the front seat and the carpet in one.

Thanks mik.
Appreciated.

Probably stupid question, but do the gutter mounts leave any marks where they sit on the paint?

Cheers, Martin.

Hoorah!

Mine haven't, but I've been meticulous in cleaning the area before I mount them.

Someone on another forum suggested getting some clear vinyl patches from a signmaker or similar - also a very good idea.
