Washing stock seat covers

Hey so I was curios to see if anyone has done this or if its even possible. Can the stock seat covers be removed and then thrown in the wash? Ive tried just about everything to clean them except having them shampoo'ed. Any tips?

 

i think youll need to just get covers,

 

haha ya i am. but just knowing that the seats are gnar and then throwing a seat cover over em kind of bugs me. want to clean the seats before i put anything on em. weird i know

 

they dont just slip on unfortunately. there are springs, rods, hooks....

rent a steam cleaner or bring it to a detailer maybe?

 

i used to work at a body shop and the guy i worked for bought his wife a salvaged mustang with cloth seats. the front seats were stained to shit so he took them out, pressure washed them (added soap to the pressure washer i am pretty sure) and sprayed them down really good. let them dry and they looked brand new.
