Excellent solution.....I like it. I have noticed some white marks from my sweaty golf shirt....probably the salt.

That's the brand - Seat Armour. It's available in black, grey or tan. I guess some Lexus dealers carry them in stock. I never thought to check my dealer... Seat Armour has a wide range of logos for their products - sports, cars, etc.

That's good to know. I need to pay closer attention next time I visit. Joe Phu at Park Place Grapevine is an excellent salesman. Park Place Lexus Plano is just a few miles from me. I should have checked before ordering online. It's amazing how big Park Place Lexus Plano is - the largest Lexus dealership in the U.S.

I received my black Seat Armour towel seat cover with the Lexus logo today. It is perfect for what I wanted it for. Perfect!

A regular towel just isn't long enough to fit properly, and it wouldn't stay up on the seat back. The custom Seat Armour seat cover fits over the headrest so the seat back as well as the seat is protected. This specialized seat cover is much more effective and definitely easier and simpler.

I play a lot of golf, and the days when I don't play I practice. Many days during the year it's so hot that I don't have a dry thread on and soaking wet with sweat. I don't want to sit on my seats when I'm all sweaty. I would prefer to have a temporary seat cover that I can quickly put on the driver's seat instead of throwing an ill-fitting towel over the seat.

I have found this temporary seat cover, which looks like it might meet my needs.

Anyone else have a similar need with a better idea?
I need to replace my gen 1 seats. Very hard for me to find. The seats are torn up. Bought it that way but now I need them replaced. Some of the controls are broke too

Second this....This solved my issue and also purchased through Amazon. My only complaint is the towel pulls down when I get in the car so I have to start with the top up on the head rest.

Lexus one fancy but pricey..

I use a large $5 bath towel from Kohl's when I need it or you can use a snuggie.

I keep a pair of snuggies in the trunk of my vehicles as a winter emergency preparation for road break downs, plus it looks cool in it's own nerdy way.
