I've taken the seat cover to a couple of local places and they both said that it's done. There are a couple of seams that came apart on the seatback which I thought was repairable, and the seat bottom needs some attention and a new pad. This is what it looks like.



At best one said they could make new covers for the seat with material sourced from their book. This is what got me down the path of trying to find a new seat in our color, or possibly one in any color if the leather was good and then using Leatherique to change it to match ours and redye our existing passenger seat at the same time.

Our VIN is YV1KS9503N0015111 and the interior color code is 6950
The passenger seat is definitely redyeable - the actual leather is in great shape still. It's just finding some kind of replacement or repair for the driver's seat - the interior looks almost showroom fresh except for this one big thing.
