Does anyone know where to get these in the U.S.?
 

They are air-conditioned seat covers. I have used one before on a long trip with someone else, kept you nice and cool in the heat. He doesn't remember where he bought it from, and I could only find them in the U.K. on various sites ... here is one to show what it is ...

It is better than the one I used, it only had the bottom cooled ... I think this would be a great assest to those who like to drive with thier a/c off for hypermiling purposes too. It really does a great job at keeping you cool:shade: Thanks for any help!

Even if you can't find it through a US distributor, you may still be able to purchase it from UK. Send the dealer an email and tell him what you want and your shipping address. They can come up with a price for you to include conversion and overseas shipping.

Or, contact the UK dealer and ask them if they know of a US distributor.

Maybe the UK companies will do a group buy and ship to the US.

Hi Shaun;

I ordered Accessories from a dealer in Canada and that dealer just gave me the total price for the US Dollars and Shipping Etc. It worked out just fine and was quick.

No-Problems at all. So I cannot see why you cannot order from UK.

Terry, thanks for the boost in confidence about purchasing from out of country

Tom, U.K. is Euro right? then the 17.99 comes out to less than $21 ... the ebay one is 65 incl. s&h ... so as long as the shipping from Europe is less than $54, then it is the same or better. Thanks for the link though!!! I always forget about eBay.

I think a group buy would be awesome if they would do it. I think this is a better option than mounting a fan on the window, using ice water and blotting, etc. or can be used in conjunction. Honestly, I will use the a/c ... and in my other cars I usually freeze the other people in the car ... this would allow me for a more normal in car temp and still keep me as cool as I like. They look nearly identical except for one has gray inlet, the other all black. I will have to look into it when I get some time, a little sad I don't see a brand name for it for me to do more research nor have I found any other examples of it.

Thanks again all.

UK is NOT Euro. They still use pounds.

At the current exchange rate, $17.99 is £31.78.

Re: Does anyone know where to get these in the U.S.?
 

or do you mean $31.78? otherwise by the example it would cost around $10 for 17.99 pounds:angel: . All I knew is it was Lira ;) ... I had forgotten which countries didn't adopt the Euro. One day it will be the Gaia or something like that and we won't deal with conversions.

$32 isn't bad depending on shipping considering I found it at California car cover company for $60 as well.

Thanks for the help :)
