    Nah - prefer cats I can leave em at home.

    Sold the ute! Mind you I do approve of the replacement.

    Head to the Warehouse or similar and shout the dog a nice rug for the new car.

    All the farmer's utes have them, you can also get them for farmbike and quad bike seats. So, Farmlands etc? Or dealers as the dealer who might fit them new....although we don't.

    Thought about one of those plastic covers but the noise would be annoying at best....somehow the bastards hair seems to work through a rug as in the wee mitsi,doesnt matter in that though.Yep utes replacements a good un....few things need doing ie remove orrible door edge protectors and wank KW stickers.BBS rims are divine.

    Local supermarket should carry a product called Desolvit - works a treat on sticky residue like that - spray, leave for 5 mins or some and wipe off - repeat as required. $10 for a bottle. A disturbing number of used for it around the house!

    Won't hurt it. Citrus based - the car will even smell better after. I've used it to remove tar, stupid factory warning stickers (Honda - smack on the tank - wear a helmet .....).

    Hi Mike,

    I had some seat covers made for my wee 4X4 Toyota Town Ace by these guys: http://www.ruggedvalley.co.nz/index.html Worth a look?

    They fucked mine up but I do think they are better than that and the covers might be exactly what you want/need. Cheers, John.
