A little seat repair
Went ahead and had the outer bolster repaired on the driver seat. Wish the original comfort weave was still around. Trim shop said stay away from the TMI covers LMR sells.
Anyway couple pics for comparison before and after.

Re: A little seat repair
Looks awesome. Hope I can get mine back in the same shape.

Re: A little seat repair
Looks good. Did they just match the color or did you have to buy a seat cover? Color is a good match. Does it have a color name?

Re: A little seat repair
Turned out good! Did trim shop say why to stay away from TMI covers?

Re: A little seat repair
Looks good! Did you take the seat out and leave it with him or did you stay and wait while he did it?

Re: A little seat repair
$250.00
Which is a little high in my opinion but was consistent for the shops I called. Plus I have worked with this shop professionally for years... My worry with the tear was damage to the foam which they worked on too.

Re: A little seat repair
Anyone ever had the lumbar support repaired?
Mine doesn't hold air, and I'm wondering where I would take it. (preferably not to the dealer)

Re: A little seat repair
The forward facing section is leather, the sides are a Vinyl from the factory from what he said.
Material feels and looks the same as stock and color match is just about perfect. At least you cannot really see a big difference at all

Re: A little seat repair
I would be paranoid about that also. Really don't even like the idea of leaving my seat anywhere. But that's probably the only way a shop will do it.

Much easier to leave the seat than the whole car though.

Re: A little seat repair
This thread gave me the kick in the a$$ that I needed
to get my driver's seat refurbished. It has been in a worn condition for the last 13 years since it was a daily driver. Took it to local guy that only works 4 hours a day. Took almost 6 weeks to get in and took a week for the actual work. He replaced the outside bolster area on the upper seat and the lower seat and redid the middle of the actual seat. So guess I'm good to go. The back seats have never been sat in and the passenger seat looks like new. I've learned a new way to get in so hope that helps. Total price was $275. Now I can open my driver's door at car shows instead of the passenger side. Big Ron |

Mine in the Mach isn't bad, but will need redone in a few years, not a concern right now. ASh
