Car seat covers.

Hi All,
Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place but hoping for some useful advice. I have a Citroen C5 hatchback in which I cart about my spaniel and GSD on a regular basis. Due to the way the back seat has a moulded plastic base I cannot find any seat covers to fit that stop the hair/wet paws, slobbering etc etc. I've looked at the Citroen website and they don't make any covers to fit.
Does anyone have one of these cars and found a cover that fit well on the back seat? I've tried the hammock kind and the elasticated ones but they all ruck up when the dogs sit on them and my back seat is practically ruined now.
Any help gratefully received.
PJ :D

    I solved the problem by sewing 2 fleece blankets together, then I took the headrests out put the fleece over cut a small slit and put head rest back. Did this with all headrests, then made a hole for the harness clip and pulled that through.

    The fleece now covers all the seat and the floor, its brilliant and so easy to remove for washing. Got the fleeces pretty cheap from Dunelm as wel. Bingo all sorted. xx

    We have a focus so you might manage with just one fleece if your car is smaller,. x
