Alright Fellas

Halfrauds do a silver seat protector that is some kind of rubberised soft fabric, had mine in there for 18 months and is great.

I didn't bother and the times I've taken the seat back out, the depresses in the leather soon right themselves.

i cant beleave the damage the car seat does to my seats even worse if you put them in the front. ill look in halfords that seems like it could be good. i cant beleave that when they build car seats they dont think of these thing the edges and corners are so sharp and always put dents in the seats!! i love it when the mrs puts the car seat on the floor then strait on the leather with all the grit stuck to the bottom i go mad at her. also i refuse to put my rear seats down on the seat belt catches as they do so much damage they rely dig dents in the seats and they dont come out.

Use lots of leather food , it keeps them soft so they don't get damaged

i agree with grizz on the above but i think this does dent the spong under the leather though............ so i put the towel's under them like mrmule, this rely does save the seats ...............

Who ever mentioned the grippit is spot on!
They are a tenner from kiddicare or similar baby shops and do the business!
I have had them on several cars and they work a treat
