Abstract: A trim cover assembly includes a trim cover disposable on a seat cushion, the trim cover having an A-side defining an occupant surface and a B-side, opposite the A-side, facing an external surface of the seat cushion. The trim cover defines a support area which, when disposed over the seat cushion, corresponds to a seat belt buckle and a recess corresponding to the seat belt buckle. The trim cover assembly also includes a trim support member secured on the B-side of the trim cover, and corresponding to at least a portion of the support area. The trim support member defines an engagement region for engaging a seat frame to form a support extension from the seat frame to provide support to the trim cover over the seat belt buckle and recess.

Abstract: A trim cover assembly includes a trim cover disposable over a cushion having a release handle bezel assembly, the trim cover has an A-side and a B-side, opposite the A-side, facing an external surface of the cushion. The trim cover defines a cover opening that, when disposed over the cushion, generally corresponds to a release handle of the release handle bezel assembly. The trim cover assembly also includes a trim retainer on the B-side of the trim cover having an outer periphery and an inner periphery defining a retainer opening generally corresponding to at least a portion of the cover opening. The trim retainer is configured to engage a housing of the release handle bezel assembly such that the trim cover assembly can be secured to the housing and between the housing and a bezel of the release handle bezel assembly.

Abstract: A vehicle seat trim assembly for concealing a vehicle seat frame is provided with at least two adjacent panels, which are oriented at angles relative to each other. At least one slot extends through the at least two adjacent panels. An interior lining is formed from a flexible nonwoven fabric material and sewn within the at least one slot. The interior lining includes a slot with a width smaller than the width of the at least one slot in the at least two adjacent panels to enclose the slot in the at least two adjacent panels and to deform to provide clearance for a head restraint post. An embroidered seam is sewn into the vehicle seat trim member around the at least one slot and sewn into the interior lining to attach the interior lining to the at least two adjacent panels.

Abstract: A trim cover assembly securable over a cushion is provided. The trim cover assembly includes a leather trim material. A trim fastener is attached to the leather trim material for retaining the trim cover to the cushion. Therein the trim fastener elastically deformable so that the fastener that elongates between an extended position and a retracted position to allow the leather trim material to expand while minimizing deformation.
