FAQ
Welcome!
General information
You can easily order all products for your vehicle online in our store. Simply select your vehicle make and model and discover all the right products. You can design your seat covers to suit your taste in our configurator and then add it to your shopping cart.
After ordering seat covers, we ask you for a so-called fit check so that we can be 100% sure that you receive exactly the right seat covers from us. As soon as we have received the fit check from you, we will check the seats and start production.
This step is not required for all other products. If you have ordered products with different delivery times, the longest specified delivery time applies.
We do not currently have a store or showroom where you can view our products. The best way to get an accurate picture is to watch our numerous videos on YouTube and our other social media channels. You can order free fabric samples at any time so that you can touch the fabric.
The delivery time for all seat covers is currently approx. 8 weeks. This is due to the fact that we always offer you premium quality and perfect custom-made products. Thank you for your understanding. As we all know, anticipation is the greatest joy. The delivery times for other additional products are noted in the product and may vary.
All products that we make specially to order for you (e.g. seat covers and yard goods) can unfortunately not be returned. An order can only be canceled within the legal framework if the fit check has not yet been carried out and production has therefore not yet started. You can think of it like a tailor's shop. It is therefore not possible for us to take back a product that has already been ordered and produced and in which we have invested a lot of time, effort and love. For this reason, we also work with the prepayment principle. However, if there are defects in your custom-made product that are due to our fault, we will of course take full responsibility for them. This means that we will repair your product immediately and, in extreme cases, even replace it. Further details can be found in our GTC.
If your vehicle model is not yet listed on our website, this does not mean that we do not have any products for you in our range. We are constantly developing new patterns for different vehicles and maybe yours is one of them. Send us the information about your vehicle via our vehicle inquiry and our customer service will check your request.
Unfortunately, it is not usually possible to create your own designs. Our processes are optimized for our existing designs, so a custom-made product would require a lot of work and would simply not be worth it for you in the end. However, if you are still interested or would like to equip several vehicles (e.g. for your company) with seat covers in your own design or with a logo print, please contact us using the contact form.
We are constantly developing our range and try to include fresh and new designs for you every year, but this is rather rare. As a result, it can also happen that some of our designs are no longer available in our store. However, we still have all the designs in our system and can access them for possible repeat orders. You are welcome to request this.
If you would like to equip your company fleet with seat covers from DriveDressy, please get in touch with our customer service team using the contact form.
Depending on the size of your order and destination country, we will ship your parcel with either DPD or DHL.
No, unfortunately it is not possible to collect from our premises, as the entire production facility is not located in Munich and we do not have a store.
seat covers
Quite simply - mega designs combined with 100% fit!
In our configurator, you have an infinite number of options for designing your vehicle interior - you won't find that anywhere else!
Our seat covers are specially made for your vehicle model and fit like a second skin over your original car seat. In addition, all functions such as ISOFIX, airbags etc. are taken into account. Every car seat in our range has been scanned with a 3D scanner and we have used this data to create the exact pattern, which enables us to guarantee a perfect fit. In a so-called fit check after your order, we identify exactly the right cut for you.
The material we use is particularly breathable, robust and, above all, machine washable.
As you can see - premium quality across the board!
In our seat cover configurator, you can put together your desired design in just a few steps.
In the configurator, you will first see a standard view in a starting design selected by us. In the configurator, we only show you the rows of seats and various seat combinations of your vehicle for which we have developed seat covers .
In the configuration process, you can select each row and combination of seats that you would like to equip with seat covers, as well as the main design (interior design) and the outer edges (exterior design) of the seat covers . Extras such as armrest covers or sewn-in pockets on the back of the backrests can also be selected for each seat. Headrest covers are ALWAYS included.
Once you have added your seat covers to the shopping cart, you can send your order or browse around the store for more highlights for your camper.
IMPORTANT: The configurator only ever shows a rough preview of the seat shape, so don't be confused if your seat looks slightly different. We will find out exactly which seat you have ordered in the fit check before production.
Basically, everything is a matter of taste. Nevertheless, we can give a few tips based on our experience.
For example, samples are SIGNIFICANTLY less sensitive than plain colors and even a plain dark blue is not necessarily completely insensitive compared to the Toucan. Water marks can be seen most quickly on plain gray tones, while a chocolate stain on the Oriental Flamingo has to be looked for first. If you are very concerned about sensitivity and don't want to wash the covers very often, we advise against overly light-colored outer cards.
When choosing a color, you should therefore consider who will be riding with you, what stains could occur and how much the seat covers will be used.
Above all, however, you should consider what you personally like best and what puts you in a good mood as soon as you get in!
The magic word is fit check.
Only if you complete the necessary steps for your vehicle AFTER your order fit check we can start with the individual production of your seat covers and guarantee the "fit like a second skin".
After placing your order, the check will take you to a questionnaire about your vehicle seats. For some vehicles, a photo of a seat or bench must also be uploaded in the questionnaire. We will then explain this in detail. By checking your vehicle seats, we then know exactly which cut we need to use in production, because even two identical vehicles can have different seats installed! We have physically handled every seat and bench we offer and know all the specifications. As a result, we also know what to look out for.
TIP: You can also do the fit check before the vehicle arrives. However, you will need some information and ideally photos from your manufacturer/dealer to carry out the check. Please contact us if you have any questions.
Unfortunately, not every seat is the same, even if the make, model and year of manufacture are the same. Often the seats differ only in small details, but these affect the fit of your seat covers . A good example is the VW T5 driver's seat - there are more than 30 different patterns of this seat in our system. If you want to be on the safe side, please send us an e-mail with your order number and a few pictures of the seats of the new vehicle and we will check the compatibility.
If you cannot find your seats, rear bench or seat combination in our store, we recommend that you first contact our customer service team by email ([email protected]) as a first step. Please send us your request and vehicle model, make and a few pictures of your seats. We will then check everything for you.
If we don't actually have your seats in our range, you still have the option of purchasing our fabric by the meter and looking for an optimal solution with an upholstery or sewing shop in your area. Many of our customers have already told us about the great results their local upholstery shop has achieved.
We use a 100% robust synthetic fiber from the automotive industry. The unique fabric composition of a hard-wearing surface, a 3mm thick foam layer and anti-slip protection is particularly breathable and comfortably soft. Our material is flame-retardant, has a light resistance factor of 8 out of 10 and 42,000 abrasion cycles. It is machine washable at 30°C. The fabric is:
- very robust & tear-resistant, particularly suitable for dogs
- machine washable
- Comfortably upholstered
- Breathable
All our seat covers are made from the same material, which is perfect for seat covers . There is no choice between different materials.
As a dog or pet owner, you've come to the right place. Our seat covers are ideal for the stress of hair, paws, dirt and claws, they are tear-resistant and extremely robust. What's more, the seat covers are easy to machine wash if they get very dirty and can also be wiped clean with a damp cloth from time to time.
In any case! Our seat covers are gently machine washable at 30°. Please follow the care instructions on the product page and in the package.
Our seat covers are not waterproof, but they are slightly water-repellent. In a small test, we found out that it takes a good 30 seconds for the fabric to absorb moisture if you knock over a coffee or beer.
Not just one, but several. Simply choose your design favorites in our store and have them sent to your home.
Our seat covers are delivered directly to your home, where you can and must put them on yourself. But don't worry - we won't leave you alone with this process either! On our YouTube channel you will find the right fitting videos for your seats. There, we'll give you all the tips and tricks to make putting on your seat covers a breeze. Most of the time, it's really easy to put on with Velcro and zippers.
You can find all our assembly videos on the DriveDressy YouTube channel.
Our seat covers (and some other products) are custom-made according to your design wishes and exactly for you. Furthermore, we don't even have fabric by the meter in stock, but print the fabric especially for you. That's why there are hardly any stock items in our store. So we need a little time to ensure that you end up with seat covers that fit like a second skin. We hope for your understanding here.
The production of seat covers is located in Munich and Slovenia.
All the important functions of your seats are retained.
For example, we sew airbag seams in places with airbags in the seats. Thanks to fit check we know exactly which seats you have.
Wheels for adjusting the armrests, ISOFIX, seat belts, everything is still accessible and the seats can be adjusted and folded down as before.
The seat covers are compatible with seat heaters.
fit check
You must always make a fit check when you order seat covers from us. The fit check is essential so that we can guarantee you the perfect fit.
WITHOUT A FIT CHECK YOU WILL LOSE YOUR FIT GUARANTEE AND PRODUCTION CANNOT START.
As soon as possible. The delivery time for our seat covers is approx. 8 weeks from fit check. This means that the longer you need, the later your order will be added to the production list and the longer you may have to wait.
Please complete the fit check form within 5 days of your order if possible. Thank you very much.
After fit check , our production department checks your details or photos and provides your order with information on the exact pattern required for your individual seat covers .
You don't have to do anything else. If we have any questions, please contact WE us.
The fit check is usually completed in a few minutes. Allow approx. 5-15 minutes for this, depending on how many seats you have ordered covers for and how many questions are asked.
Thank you for your help!
Yes and no, it is advisable to have your vehicle nearby when you do the fit check so that you can check that you have chosen the right answer to every question about your seat.
Some vehicles require you to take photos of the seats - then you need the vehicle nearby or someone to send you photos.
If you do not have your vehicle nearby or have not yet received it, please contact us and we will work out together what you can do.
No, normally you don't have to measure anything for the fit check . We may provide you with different pictures to choose from (e.g. of headrests) and dimensions - if your variant is not completely obvious, you may then have to measure something in order to select the correct picture of your seat.

magnetic bag
For whatever you like. The magnetic bag are perfect for storing clothes, bathroom utensils, toys, snacks or even shoes, can be used as a beach bag or for a stroll through town - there are no limits to your imagination.
IMPORTANT: If you use the bag with magnets, we strongly advise you not to store cell phones, cash cards or other sensitive objects in the bag, which could be damaged by the magnetic effect.
No, inside the bag there is a large main compartment and a compartment that opens and closes with a zipper. The magnetic inlay is placed in this zippered compartment. Therefore - at least when using the bag magnet - only the main compartment can be used.
The bag itself is not magnetic.
By inserting the supplied pocket magnet into the inside of the pocket, the pocket becomes magnetic and holds without a counterpart on all metallic surfaces, e.g. on the vehicle itself or on a metal strip.
To attach the bag to the seat cover , you need the counter magnet. This is pushed under the seat cover at any suitable point so that the magnetic inlay and the counter magnet can tighten. This allows the bag to "hold on", so to speak. The same works with tent walls or thin cupboard walls, for example.
The magnetic inlay and the counter magnet always contain several strong individual neodymium magnets, which are enclosed in a type of fabric insert.
The use of magnetic bag on the seat only works with robust seat covers.
To attach the bag to the seat cover , you need the counter magnet. This is pushed under the seat cover at any suitable point so that the magnetic inlay and the counter magnet can tighten. This allows the bag to "hold on", so to speak. The same works with tent walls or thin cupboard walls, for example.
No, the bags are made from the same robust material as our seat covers, but without the foam padding.
The material is slightly water-repellent, but not waterproof. This also means that you should protect the magnetic bag from the weather, e.g. from heavy rain, so that the bag, but above all the magnets in the bag, are not damaged.
The bag is not insulating, it is not a cooler bag.
The magnetic bag can be washed gently at 30°C on a wool cycle, see care instructions above.
IMPORTANT: All magnets must be removed for this!
The magnets themselves will not scratch your car's paintwork as they are encased in fabric and safely stowed in the corresponding pocket compartment.
However, when attaching them to the vehicle, you should make sure that the metal eyelets for fastening the straps and the bag fastener are kept to the side so that these elements do not scratch your paintwork.
The magnetic bag is available in 3 sizes S, M and L, each with or without counter magnet. You can find the exact dimensions on the product page. You can also purchase additional straps or magnets as well as the matching stick-on metal strips to attach your bags.
thermal mats
In the COCKPIT-SET always includes a themal mat for the windshield and a magnetic mat for the window on the driver's and passenger's side. Everything you need for mounting, e.g. the rods in the mat for the windshield, are also included.
IMPORTANT: In the product description above, we may indicate for which specific variant of a vehicle model the cockpit set is included.
The WOHNRAUM-SET contains all mats and mounting accessories for:
- Rear window
- Side window, center driver's side with or without sliding window
- Side window center passenger side with or without sliding window
- Rear driver's side window
- Rear passenger side window
The thermal mats are always mounted on the inside of the vehicle, with the black side facing outwards.
The two side thermal mats at the front hold magnetically and are simply attached to the bodywork.
The themal mat for the windshield is held in place with a rod system and the sun visors. Integrated magnets around the rear-view mirror ensure that the mat can also be attached tightly here.
The thermal mats for the living area are usually attached to small metal rods, which are supplied and can be glued into the respective window trim, see video. This means that no suction cup is required at the back. The metal rods can be removed again.
Yes, the thermal mats we offer are always black edged and matt black on the outside. The insulating layer on the inside of the mat ensures the insulating function, not a reflective silver side as you may be familiar with from comparable products.
The black look also looks more stylish and is less conspicuous.
The thermal mats can be lightly wiped with a damp cloth, but not washed in the washing machine.
A cockpit set can be folded flat, see video. The mat for the windshield is folded or rolled a maximum of twice.
The two side thermal mats can be stowed perfectly in the backrest pockets of your DriveDressy seat covers or flat in the pop-up roof. The mat for the windshield can also be laid completely flat in the roof (ATTENTION: Depends on the roof!) or stowed on the rear seat, a mattress or similar.
If you buy a living area set, you will need to plan for considerably more storage space, preferably in the trunk for a total of 8 flat mats of different sizes.
Mosquito nets
We currently only have mosquito nets for the driver and passenger side in our range. However, we are constantly working on expanding our range. Don't want to miss out on new products or news? Then follow us on our social media channels or subscribe to our
newsletter.
The secret of our mosquito nets is hidden in the hem, where small magnets are sewn in, which simply attach to the bodywork around the window.
Good news: Yes! As both the thermal mats and the mosquito nets are attached magnetically, there are no problems using both products at the same time. You can simply attach the thermal mats over the mosquito nets and there's no hassle of attaching and removing them.
Our mosquito nets are a fairly new product in our store and the development of the various models is still in full swing. Don't want to miss out when new products are available? Then follow us on our social media channels or subscribe to our newsletter.

By the meter
Fabric by the meter can be used in many ways, here are some ideas:
Unupholstered fabric:
- Curtains & drapes
- Tablecloths
- Individual cushion covers
- Laundry bags
Padded fabric:
- Individual covers for upholstery & mattresses
- Production of matching dog blankets/cushions
- Wall coverings
- Cladding of individual furniture components
- Individual seat covers for rear benches that we do not have in our range, or self-built seating or sleeping areas in the camper
The fabric can be ordered by the meter. The unpadded fabric is always 150 cm wide and 1, 2 or 3 meters long. The upholstered fabric is always 160 cm wide and also 1, 2 or 3 meters long. If you need more than 3 running meters, e.g. 5 meters, you can order 1x 2 running meters and 1x 3 running meters, for example.
Upholstered yard goods and unupholstered yard goods are made of the same robust material on the surface.
While the unupholstered fabric is relatively thin and flexible and can be used for curtains, tablecloths or cushion covers, for example, the upholstered fabric is backed with a layer of foam approx. 3 mm thick and protected with a charmeuse (a kind of fine mesh on the underside).
The upholstered fabric is therefore much thicker and more comfortable than the unupholstered fabric and can therefore be used for covering or making covers.
When printing the yard goods, we use the same pattern scaling as for the seat covers. The pattern is printed as shown in the product image above, i.e. the pattern is nicely aligned and centered across the width of the yard goods and then repeated as often as required in length, depending on the quantity of yard goods ordered.
ATTENTION: With the "Magic Forest" and "Misty Mountains" patterns, the pattern always starts from the beginning after every 1 meter, as it is a "picture" and not a continuous pattern.
If you need more than 3 meters of fabric, e.g. 5 meters, you can simply add 1x 2 running meters and 1x 3 running meters to the shopping cart.
The reason why we print a maximum of 3 running meters at a time is that printing errors can occasionally occur. In these cases, we will of course reprint the order so that in the event of an error, we have not produced quite so much waste.
If you want to sew (or have sewn) covers for back benches or seat cushions yourself, e.g. because we do not have the pattern in our range, it is advisable to choose a pattern that is as uncomplicated as possible or plain colors where the pattern transition at the seams is not quite as essential as, for example, with a very straightforward design.
The more exact pattern pieces you have to cut out of the fabric, the more waste you will have and the more fabric you will need. Hawaii Dream, Toucan or Hibiscus, for example, are very uncomplicated patterns for self-sewn covers.
The amount of fabric you need depends on the size of the upholstery and the colors and patterns you choose.
As a rule of thumb, it can be said that an average 2-seater rear bench requires approx. 3-4 running meters of upholstered fabric if only one color is chosen.
Our customer service will be happy to advise you on the required quantity.
Like almost all of our individual products, the yard goods are also made to order for you.
We do not have any fabric by the meter in stock, but print the fabric in your chosen quality, color and length just for you.
As the yard goods, like our seat covers, are produced in our normal printing cycle, the whole process takes up to 8 weeks.
Yes, our yard goods can be gently washed in the washing machine at 30°C. Please follow the care instructions above.
Yes, our fabric can be glued on. The upholstered fabric is particularly suitable for this, which can be stuck onto a smooth, straight surface with a suitable spray adhesive, for example, which is then attached in the camper as cladding, see photos on this page.
ATTENTION: Our yard goods are virtually non-elastic and are not suitable for covering surfaces "around curves", as this would result in too many creases.
Of course - use our free fabric sample service (see menu).
Yes, our yardage can be processed with a "normal" sewing machine, no industrial sewing machine is required. If you are unsure, it is best to order a few free fabric samples and try it out straight away!
Mattress covers
In our store you will only find mattress covers for the standard size of the original mattresses or bed extensions from the respective manufacturers. Customization is unfortunately not possible. If you would also like to integrate your design into the sleeping area and we do not have your mattress in our range, you can also purchase our fabric by the meter and start your small
DIY project with a sewing shop in your region.
The mattress covers are easily machine washable at 30°, just like our seat covers. Please follow all care instructions in the product and package.
Our mattress covers are made from the same robust and breathable synthetic fiber as our seat covers. The material is tear-resistant, flame-retardant, very hard-wearing and suitable for the washing machine.
All our designs are also available by the meter. Simply go to the yard goods section in the store and find the right design for you.
Mattresses & Toppers
As we are currently having the mattress manufactured in cooperation with Optima Schlafsysteme, we initially only have a few vehicles in our range as a test. Don't want to miss out when new products are available? Then follow us on our social media channels or subscribe to our newsletter.
Not all mattresses are the same - the difference is usually hidden inside.
In this case, we rely on EvoPoreHRC and that is exactly what makes it so special. EvoPore is not cold foam, as we know it from classic mattresses, but a polyurethane foam.
It is lighter, significantly more durable and more sustainable. Compared to simple cold foam, EvoPoreHRC requires 30% fewer resources in production.
But it goes even further! The comfort, even if it cannot be measured in figures, is significantly higher. The mattress is extremely breathable, climate-regulating and comfortable. Thanks to the integrated 7 zones, both stomach, back and side sleepers will find the perfect lying position.
Lightweight! This is the best way to describe the mattresses & toppers from DriveDressy. The 5 cm thick topper weighs just 7 kilos and the 11.5 cm thick mattress comes in at just 10 kg. On average, our mattresses are around 30% lighter
than a classic cold foam mattress and are also foldable.
Each vehicle has its own dimensions and recesses - our mattresses are specially designed for specific vehicles, as indicated in the product name.
As soon as you hold our mattress or topper in your hands, you will immediately notice that they have two completely different sides. One side with your desired design, which ensures that the mattress is optimally protected from below and can withstand any surface, and the other side with a super soft and comfortable cotton fabric that invites you to sleep and ensures maximum comfort. You sleep accordingly on the side WITHOUT DriveDressy design.
