Important Information
TMI Products makes accurate seat covers for all Type 3 models and years. All pleating, fabric grain, and fit is as original.

Basket Weave: This classic VW fabric has cross hatched rectangles. Because the fabric is the most widely used, seat covers made in basket weave are the least expensive. You may use basket weave seats for any year, whether original or not.

Square Weave: Similar to basket weave, the pattern is a little different. Also color choices differ. This was a later fabric but may be used on any year seat.

Smooth Vinyl: The smooth leather grained vinyls are popular and there are variations: oxen vinyl and oem vinyl which are similar but come in other colors.

It is not possible to present all variations. For example, you may wish to design seat covers having one vinyl as the trim and another color as the insert. Also possible is piping (the rolled edging at the interface between the trim and the main fabric along the seat cover edges.) You can contact us at the support email if you wish to design special seat covers not shown on this page.

Our piping is solid cord not a rolled vinyl. This means that it cannot "rub out" as a coated or rolled vinyl piping will.

In the earliest VWs the original fabric was smooth leather grained vinyl. In 1968 Volkswagen introduced the basket weave fabric which was used until 1974.
