A seat for a motor vehicle includes a seat base, a seat back extending upwardly from a rear portion of the seat base, a seat belt, a portion of the seat belt stored in the seat back, an emergency locking retractor in an outboard side of the seat back, the seat belt being threaded through the emergency locking retractor, and a cover covering the emergency locking retractor and the portion of the seat belt stored in the seat back. The cover may include a first cover piece covering a first side of the emergency locking retractor and the portion of the seat belt stored in the seat back and a second cover piece covering a second side of the emergency locking retractor and the portion of the seat belt stored in the seat back.

Seat belt cover

A removable seat of a motor vehicle includes first and second cross brackets laterally spaced apart and arranged perpendicular to first and second upper rails located in a floor of the motor vehicle, the first and second cross brackets being connected to the first and second upper rails, a cover connected to and extending between the first and second cross brackets, a handle extending laterally outward from the cover, a spring-loaded lock that holds the first upper rail in place with one of a first lower rail and second lower rail the floor, and a towel bar that releases the lock, enabling the first and second upper rails to slide within the first and second lower rails.

Grip mechanism for a motor vehicle seat

A rail and carrier system for first and second removable seats of a motor vehicle is described. The rail and carrier system includes two lower rails fixedly attached to and positioned laterally along a floor of the motor vehicle. Two upper rails are nested with and laterally slidable within each of the lower rails. The rail and carrier system further includes four cross brackets laterally spaced apart and arranged perpendicular to the upper rails, two connecting the left upper rails, and two connecting the right upper rails. Covers are connected to and extend between the cross brackets.

Lateral slide removable seat

The vehicle seat cover assembly covers a portion of a vehicle seat back. The vehicle seat cover assembly comprises a base member including a first portion and a second portion. The base member includes at least one connecting component to permit interlocking engagement therewith, a covering configured to be connected to the base member to cover a portion of the base member, and, a fastening member including at least one fastening component configure to attach the covering to the base member. The covering is positioned intermediate to the fastening member and the base member such that the fastening component of the fastening member engages the connecting component of the base member thereby attaching the covering to the base member.

Vehicle seat covering assembly

Some embodiments are directed to a holder assembly that includes a lower covering portion that covers and thereby retains a lowermost portion of a mobile electronic device, the lower covering portion being integrated with a rear of a vehicle seat. The holder assembly also includes an upper support portion that supports a top portion of the mobile electronic device, the upper support portion being integrated with the rear of the vehicle seat. The upper support portion and lower covering portion are configured to cooperatively: 1) hold the mobile electronic device in the orientation to enable a passenger in a rear compartment of the vehicle to view the screen of the mobile electronic device upon the mobile electronic device being manually engaged with the holder assembly, and 2) enable the manual disengagement of the mobile electronic device from the holder assembly.

Integrated device holder assembly and methods of use and manufacture thereof

An adjustable vehicle seat arrangement includes a plurality of strikers connected with a vehicle frame, an inboard vehicle seat, and an outboard vehicle seat. At least one outboard seat rear striker includes a latching section divider dividing the outboard seat rear striker into at least two laterally spaced apart latching sections. The outboard vehicle seat includes an outboard seat rear latch that cooperates with the outboard seat rear striker and an outboard seat front latch that cooperates with an outboard seat front striker. The outboard seat is generally laterally aligned with and laterally offset from the inboard seat. The outboard seat is laterally adjustable and the outboard seat rear latch is configured to engage the outboard seat rear striker at each of the at least two laterally spaced apart latching sections. A method for laterally adjusting a vehicle seat and a vehicle seat assembly are also disclosed.
