ye they'll fit over and in time after use they will sorta mould to ur seats. Those fronts are a universal size 60 which are a one piece design (headrest covered with same cut as main seat). If you want a seatcover with a seperate headrest cover go for a universal size 30. The rears are a universal size 06.

If you have any more q's i'd be happy to help if i can.

Those seats may say universal but theres different sizes of universal. When i went to autobarn the guy over there showed me 2/3 different sizes and ones that dont allow side airbags to work etc. After all the chatting i got some amr seat covers, they sorta look similar to bride seats. I'll grab a random pic off google to show you what covers i've got atm. They come in grey, red and blue.

I got these on atm http://www.getprice.com.au/images/uploadimg/908/350__1_1885103-1.jpg

They costed me $50. Don't really know the outer layer material, its got foam padding behind it, really comfy and the material holds you in position, its not like when you turn in stock seats u sorta swing out a lil, sorta like bucket seats without the bucket.

:EDIT: The outer layer are chrome mesh. Heres a link to view the colours and sizes: http://www.seatcoverworld.com.au/sports/AMRChromeMesh.htm
