One More Thing to Worry About

I was looking for seat covers for my car. I thought this would be a fairly easy task simply because I am good at finding things that are pretty even though I'm not that good with cars. Boy was I wrong. The whole process was going smoothly until I read one ad touting that their seat covers were "air bag ready". My first thought was "Umm...Really? Is that like a thing I need to think about? This hurts my head. I'd rather be thinking about hawaii vacations then concentrating on this."

After doing a little bit of research I found that there is generally a small flap in the side of the seat cover for side airbags. However, the original ad that I read the phrase "air bag ready" seat covers was for my specific make and model of car. So the air bag arrows were pointing to the middle of the seat. Isn't that just like a regular car? I'm too freaked out about getting seat covers that will somehow hurt me if I'm ever in an accident that I'm just going to skip the process altogether.
