| Want to replace the drivers side seat leather in my 96 RMW limited. It has typical tear in the area of the seat adjuster and since its used more than the other seats, bottom panel starting to look shabby.
Went to a local upholstery shop in Daytona and a distributor and they were unable to match the color and texture in either leather or vinyl.
Tried the leather restoration method and it looks good at first,but after a year it does not hold up.
Want to know if anyone knows of a source for replacement leather or vinyl that would be match to OEM material. Color is Tan. | |

| Why not just buy a new(er) seat, or short of that the lower seat cover out of a junkyard? | |

| Go to the junkyard and remove the inside (left side) of the passenger seat. then take it to your interior guy and have him cut the holes and re-sew it in the drivers seat.
Same leather, same pattern, and most importantly, same color. | |

| I do too. But can we get that resized? It's way too large to use as a sig and displays like crap on a phone. | |

| Etsfl,
A plea from those of us reading on phones. Can you resize your signature? It makes browsing a nightmare because of how a large signature displays. | |
