    ITS SOOOO FLUFFY!!
    Color: Orange
    Ooouuu she’s so fluffy!!!!!! Omg, I’m in love. The color looks exactly as pictured. The gear shift cover was way too small for my RAV4 but it’s okay, it kind of interfered with the button to move the gear. Also, if you need to see the info on the dash, be aware that the steering wheel cover blocks it for the most part. I’m not bothered by it but it’s something to make note of for those who might be.

    Warm and soft!!
    Color: Orange, Color: Orange
    So funky and cute! Matches my inferno orange car! I really only wanted the steering wheel cover & have no need for the other covers because they don’t fit on my shifter, or my parking break. Besides, it gets kind of dirty on the console. Keeping gloves in the car so it doesn’t end up dirty from my hands this winter:) It does make it a bit hard to see the ignition and some of the gauges as it is so fluffy, but it’s so funny, I don’t care! Lol

    Came vacuum sealed. No smell. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE how fluffy it is!!! The color is a perfect match to my car. I don’t have an emergency break lever so I couldn’t use that. Overall 10 out of 10 rt now!
