Hey all,

I have some cracks in my front seats and was just wondering if anyone had any advice for getting this fixed, or at least stopping it from getting worse. In my old car I just put duct tape on the seats but don't really want to go there now.

Thanks

I'm in the same situation. One of the seams is splitting on my driver's seat. The interior looks great, except for this. The yellow foam underneath is ugly.

 

autozone sells this item called a leather repair kit. You put some glue over the tear to seal it and then you mix a bunch of colors together till you match your interior color (hard to do....for me at least). Then you put a piece of textured (matching the texture of our interior) paper on the paint while it is wet and take this heat tool to it. So far the results for me have been bootsie...but the tan I have is hard to match.

 

does it look decent?? I have beige seats.

 

ive people have had bad experience with those repair kits, cracks in the leather pretty much mean the leather has dried and broken in those spot, even with conditioning the problem isnt going away, i heard a while back pretty sure on this site theres a way to cover up teh cracks with a shrpie. what i did with my leather was get some liquid electrical tape and just spray it on, result are pretty good, but these are more or less better for black or darker colors. i also do know that professionals do you that repair kit thing less of me mentioned but they pretty much use a base color and smooth out the crack/rip/tear and pretty much use a special spray paint to paint it. not the easist way but atleast you get an idea of what you can do.
