Hole in the leather seat

I had a eraser size hole in the light grey leather driver seat, now the passenge seat is getting one in the same location! It seems as the under-frame padding has moved/worn out. Easy to remove and shove some foam in there on the side that is starting to wear? the hole is on the outer thigh pads, so possibly the lower part of the seat could be removed by itself? 97' 328

Before my warranty was up I pointed out to the dealer that the leather on the outer driver side seat was wearing thin along the seat back edges. They simply replaced the seat back. So it appears at least the seat back can be worked separately from the seat. So perhaps the seat can be replaced separately as well.

BTW.. I'm pretty diligent about using leather cleaner and conditioner. This seems to enhance seat life.

Try going to "leatherique.com" it seems to be the best leather treatment out there. and they also have a product to fix the hole in your seat

I've always had good results with Lexol stuff for leather. Just be sure to always condition the leather after you clean it.
