How to protect the F10 oyster leather seat under child seat?

I already use a protective sheet that is made of soft plastic/rubber that I got off Mothercare but I am concerned that it is black in color and the may rub off on the oyster leather. Can anyone recommend a solution which protects the seat without causing any color transfer?

I have 2 childseat in the back of my car.(2.5 and 5.5 years)
Because of that I just used simple blanket which covers the whole backseat.
I just made a whole in to be able to attach the carseat to the ISOFIX connection.

Just find a a blanket which is close to the colour of your seats and you are good to go.
Well protected and do not have to irritate yourself when children eat in the back.

I would rather pay 500$ for good cleaning of the seats and the rest of interior just before selling the car then beeing irritated for every single mark or stain.

We do many long trips during the year and it contributed to the "climate" in the car. The more satisfied an happy the kids are the more fun is the trip.

But offcourse:
Only dry food back there, no icecreams and similar and only softdrinks that do not spil.

Same that I use, in beige.

The bottom has a rubberized grippy surface that is white / gray. In over a year, I have not had any color transfer whatsoever on either seat we have installed.
