Default leatherette and back sweat

Anybody have a good idea to reduce the amount of back and underleg sweating that seems (for me at least) to only really be an issue with my ebony interior? Love my car, but hate showing up for business meetings with a damp spot on the back of my shirt. All my previous cars were cloth, and I never really noticed much of a problem.

Too much information! ;-) Seat covers are prolly your only option.

Careful with the seat covers though - many aftermarket ones don't have openings for the side airbags

Default Put this on your back and you're all set (as a bonus, it matches OEM Sport Package)...

Default Hmm. Bummer. They got a good review in our local paper for the product.

I was thinking of getting something for my front seats.

Default I have no doubt the product is great - but I can't see how they expect...

someone to buy their stuff if they don't even respond to inquiries and requests for more info. I dunno, maybe life on the island is a bit more relaxed - so maybe I'll get a response someday. I guess it's just as well. I believe the set costs something like $250 - and I wasn't even sure that it would help with the sweating part. Also, no matter what color you choose for the center panels of the covers the sides always come in black (unless they've changed that). I don't think I could stand to look at partially black covers in a platinum interior.

Good point, looks like the ones above do, though.
