    Hello - I just bought a used Prius C 1 (2012) and, believe it or not, the front seats do not have removable head rests - instead, the head rests are part of the front seats and they are quite tall (and sporty looking!)

    I tried my ol' favorite black faux leather-look bucket seat covers from BellAutomotive, but they are not quite the right fit as the pointy topped head rests are just too tall (close but no cigar). Any advice out there for another source that won't break the bank? I've looked at pictures on google and the Prius C pics all show front seats with a normal bucket seat head rest....so....do all Prius C 1 models have these one piece pointy headed front seats? And my real point - how do I find a good stretchy seat cover that will fit?

    I read on this forum that Clazzio has them and you have to specify that you want seat covers that cover bucket seats with NO removeable headrests for the Prius C - let me know what you find out there - I really don't want to spend a lot of money on a custom made item....

    This site has Prius C1 specific seat covers. A bit pricey but appears to be a perfect fit for the high head rests. I will be buying shortly, will post update then.

    I am new to the site so I can not post a direct link but the site is gtcovers.
