Also added the mud flaps and they fit 95% and looks nice. Same black from plastic parts and gives a nice touch to the design.

More importantly i wish these really protect from wet surface from splashing the paint with dirt / mid - feels a big small for that, but lets see.

Im also so happy with this sun shield - so different than all ive tried in the past.

No more aluminum plastic that blast into pieces in the future leaving a mess behind...

Its fast to fold back in a little circle and i hide it below the elbow resting compartment. On one side.

And the best of it - its black!

It's the first time I've a black sun shield cover. Very well done here's the link if anyone wants it

I tend to drop the keys... So i got this cover that looks and feels great. Its end of the world proof lol and its not that bulky as it looks like.


I even used my daughter painting stuff to give it some blue details like my car - i like it

I dont know why this car didnt come with this from factory. But this extra organizer is an absolute must for every owner...


It even comes with a silicone "floor" just like other parts of the car - which i love so it matches and looks oem.

Oh and also got that mini brush in there with MG logo but nvm it lol
 
That windscreen thing is what I need.

I just spent the weekend camping in my MG4. I have curtains for the side windows, and one covers the rear windscreen not too badly, but I had nothing for the front. It didn't matter this time because both places I camped the car's nose was facing directly into trees. But I was wondering what to do, I can't always be so lucky with the pitch. Also, if it's June not September, it gets light very early here.

Bjorn Nyland said that the window covers marketed for the Tesla Model 3 fit the MG4 pretty well, and they're insulated too for use in the cold, but I think they come as a complete set. I really just want the windscreen one. This will do nicely.
 
Here are photos of my seat covers. One of the reasons for getting them was to brighten up the dark interior of the car, but as you like the dark effect you would probably choose a different colour. There are some nice ones to choose from.

These are the front seats, and note that there is an opening to allow the airbags to deploy if necessary. You can also see the edges of my dash mat.

This is the back of the front seats, and you can see the pockets, rear passengers for the use of, that are incorporated.

Here are the back seats. The bench part of the back seats is an absolute pig to get on, or rather getting the bench out is hard and getting it back is even harder. I had to get my dealer to do it in the end although other forum members have succeeded. The rest of the pieces are OK, you just need patience and a bit of effort, and for the backs of the back seats, to get these detached. This is not hard once you know how and there are videos about it.

It is possible to make a neater job of the tops of the seats (where the headrests and seat belt fittings go) than the makers seem to imagine. I removed some fabric piping, enlarged the holes a bit using scissors, and got a result I'm extremely pleased with. (This photo was taken with the back of the seat flat on the load bed, before re-fitting it and replacing the headrest.)

As it's summer here I have the MG carpet mats installed, but I also have moulded plastic mats for winter use. These are 3D printed from scans of the car, and fit so that they hold the mud and pebbles within the mat rather than letting them go on to the car's own carpet. I got these from England though, and I don't know whether they can be, or are economical to, send abroad.

I don't try to keep these super clean, because winter, you know, but I take them out to tip out the stones and the mud from time to time, and sometimes put them in the bath and give them a bit of a scrub. They don't completely eliminate the need to vacuum the car's own carpet, but they go a long way to protecting it. I used them all last winter, then put the carpet mats back in April. I'll probably switch again in October.

This is the matching boot liner from the set, which I use all the time. It fits perfectly, and again is extremely effective in keeping dirt and stuff from the actual carpet. You can also see the backs of the rear seats, with covers, in this photo.

I was going to suggest fangs, but these may not have the same effect on a black car as they have with other colours.

Oh, and don't dare say that the SE isn't one of the "best options". Lots going for it, and the software doesn't seem as flaky as is being complained about on the Trophy models.
Hi can you provide details of where these seat covers can be purchased from or a link please. Waiting on my MG4 long range arriving and will need seat covers due to grandchildren in the car and no doubt dirt and potential damage from drinks, muddy shoes etc.
 
Yes. There is a lot of choice there, so rather than me linking directly to the product I chose, it's probably best to google and browse. It's also possible the exact ones I bought aren't available any more.

I tried to buy the front windscreen cover but ran into technical problems and the purchase failed to go through.
 
The ones i bought doesn't entirely cover the seat... In fact they are over-cover like it goes on top. And doesnt fit the head rest. Better than nothing but not what i expected.

Driver side - side is already damaged. So yeah if you can @Rolfe share the link of the exact item you got - let us know.

And its been a while and its still wrinkled

It must be something you're doing - my car is over 2 years old now and the seats still look fine. (No covers)
OEM seats are intact. My pics are from the "seat covers" i got from aliexpress. Damaged & wrinkled from day 1 and the wrinkle didnt go away :P (guess it traveled folded for waaaay too long to fix itself)
 
Ah - it was your comment of "doesn't entirely cover the seat" that confused me. :)

Even so, you must be brushing past that part of the seat with some force for even the seat cover to wear like that.
