Cover for the folded back seats and the back of Clubman

I have just purchased a new 2008 Clubman S and am very satisfied with the car.

We have a dog that sheds considerably and would like to purchase a washable cover to cover the back seats folded down and the rest of that area, shielding the carpet from most of the dog hair.

Can anyone tell me if they have such a product and where I might buy it?

Thanks,
buckbs

Of course MINI makes one, that covers all nicely, out of heavy vinyl in a checker pattern, and a fairly hefty price ($280, plus if you want them to install it it's probably $2000-3000 extra ):

I have one of those MINI Checkered back seat liners from my dealership. It is a great addition and totally covers the entire back area. I keep the portion by the back doors down so the dogs can get in and out. Otherwise it is is four-sided. It goes in easily with use of suction cups for the windows. No damage done to the interior of the car as the front part attaches to the front seat headrests.
The hardest part for me was that instructions are in Italian. But it really is simple to figure out by just looking at it. It is very well built as it should be for the price. I might have a picture of it in my gallery. Can't remember but I think I posted one.

Yup, it's in there.

Thanks for the poochstyle.com reference. The seat covers turned out great. The back seat covers in black are quite inconspicuous.

I second the PoochStyle.com reccomendation. Only issue is it covers the floor only and not the carpeted sides in back, but they are looking into a solution for that. GREAT company to work with.

pouchstyles is fantastic-friendly and helpful on the phone and fair prices for a quality product. i was previously told by the parts dept at the dealer that the factory rear seat cover would not fit the r55
