Melvill & Moon

Melvill & Moon seat covers are now available for the Grenadier.

image002.png

Melvill & Moon pioneered the use of removable, washable, 100% canvas seat covers for the 4x4 and farm vehicle market over 24 years ago.
With seat cover manufacture now a growing industry, our insistence on high quality fabrics (especially woven heavy duty, 510gsm 100% cotton canvas), our commitment to ongoing design improvement and customer service has seen us remain the benchmark in the industry.

Our seat covers are water repellant, rot-proofed, fully washable and handmade from natural cotton.
They are breathable, cool and comfortable to sit on.

Melvill & Moon Seat Cover backstory

Since 1998 our Seat Cover department has been an important leg of the business. The original seat covers that inspired us were on the East African bush planes ferrying visitors and gear in and out of Nairobi’s Wilson airport to far flung lodges and camps across East Africa.
Our approach was to put quality vehicle specific tailor made design around this idea.
And so it was that Melvill & Moon kicked off a manufacturing industry in 1999. Our insistence on high quality fabrics (especially woven heavy duty, 510gsm 100% cotton canvas), our commitment to ongoing design improvement and customer service has seen us remain the benchmark in the industry. To this day we still work hard to stay ahead, bring you the latest developments and patterns for the latest car releases.

Yes I have a charcoal one and much happier with this than the full one. Not least because it allows access to the spare wheel storage, which I use regularly.

Will take a pic later. It fits on 285/70/17 and had less writings which much prefer to the full one.
I debated the doughnut type cover due to the locking wheel box however, as someone who only occasionally needs access to the wheel box I felt the full cover helped on the security front. Besides, if we all went for the doughnut cover, how would M&M get any free advertising!! 🤷‍♂️😁

And here’s the spare wheel cover.
Do they actually have different sizes or one fits all (for the Grenadier)?

If someone could also tell me how to order this for EU (e.g. Germany) I would be happy?!

Thank you very much

Hi IG
I wasn't asked about the size of wheels I had and am assuming that one size for both 17" & 18". Would be a very tight fit on the 18" though.

Ours came in yesterday from 🇿🇦. Basic Charcoal. Won't have a Grenadier for months yet. Just thought we'd beat the rush.

Curious how long yours took to arrive? I ordered some covers a while ago (like a month ago) with the same concern over beating the crowd, but I haven’t seen a tracking number or anything from M&M since I paid. I might check with them sometime this week.

Payment was made at the end of August. After that we had no updates until about 10 days ago when we started getting notifications from DHL. I wouldn't worry about it. M&M are a very small but reputable company. You'll get your covers soon enough.

I think mine took a couple of months. Nowhere near as long as the Grenadier!!

Ah perfect - thanks! I wasn’t too worried for the record - totally knew it would take awhile for it to arrive, but wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I just checked and my payment was made on 6th Sept, so I’m sure I’ll see within the next few weeks.

Believe it's one size fits all. Mine fits my 285/70/17 spare.

They are airfreighted in batches from SA.

The 10% discount only applies if you order from the UK branch. It is not honored if you order direct from SA.

Kindof disappointing as this is the fourth set of M&M seat covers I've ordered and paid quite a bit in shipping over that time due to a lack of US distribution.

Really wanted to go with the M&M (Dark Charcoal), however been waiting for some time and no response at all, no sort of acknowledgement outside of the auto generated email saying "service liaisons will be in contact". Not exactly inspiring.

@Cheshire cat did you have to remove the side panels from the driver seat, next to the lever? If you install the seat cover this part seems quite narrow, though.
Hi Minidock
Didn’t have to remove anything but it is a tight squeeze and an area which I feel I can still improve. I also used a plastic trim tool like a large scraper in order to tuck the seat cover into the joint where seat back meet’s cushion.

Where are you based? If in UK I would have expected you to be dealing with Steffi who is extremely helpful.

Hopefully you find something suitable. Are Carhart not going to produce covers for the Grenadier?

Hi @flynnsk I would still contact Steffi. That's what I did. She was very helpful and made contact with South Africa. I also received a very friendly and helpful welcome there. I am very satisfied with the whole process.

Same here. We emailed Steffi. We receive a reply from Kirsten in South Africa a few days later.

Thanks for sharing, I will give it a try. For now I just guided the cotton along the plastic and at lever section behind that.

My experience is the opposite, very supportive and kind responses I have received. I am very satisfied with the product and the service provided to me.
