Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus for form-fitting covers to vehicle passenger seats are provided. A cushion is mounted on a seat frame and surrounded by a cover having one or more heat shrinkable fabric panels attached to a peripheral edge thereof. Each heat shrinkable fabric panel is attached to the seat frame and heat is applied. The heat causes each panel to shrink along a predetermined direction, thereby drawing the cover taut around the cushion and frame.
