Seat restoration -
I might suggest Wet Okole seat covers. Won't cure the problem, but will hide it. http://www.wetokole.com/
I love mine, most people don't even know that they are seat covers. I didn't get the cover for the rear seat (personally, I don't know how anyone can sit there!), but the covers I have for the front seats are very nice.
So I can't figure out how to attach pictures any more (it says I have already uploaded, but doesn't give me the option to link again??). But I did post them back in this thread: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=47300

They may sell just the seat cover. Here is the link for part#.

Thank you both for the tips. I really trying to find a place that can dyeing the burned spots. One guy said that the job is too small for him so i am still looking around. I am selling my Little One and would like to get as close to the Blue Book value ( around $24,000) as possible so I want the seat in good shape . As is I will be OK to sell it for $22K.
here the pictures of the seat:

This may not work at all - but you might want to try hitting them with hydrogren peroxide. It is a mild oxygen bleach. It can't hurt the seats and might lighten the stains a little bit. Just blot on and then force dry with a hairdryer so you don't get a water ring.
If no one minds ideas thrown out (not sure if it would work), have you tried Mr Clean Magic Eraser? I don't know what the heck this stuff is, but it recently took permanent marker off of my kitchen countertops, and before I bought my house, easily got me my rental deposit back in full taking off the scratches and marks on walls.
I believe it may be a very very fine abrasive material (like sandpaper) but not sure. It could slightly buff out those burn marks... it's probably worth a try, and they sell extremely cheap even at grocery stores.

Funny you mentioned this product.. yesterday out of disperation I used it and it made a big difference. I used in all four seat and took so much dirt out I did not know I had. I have decided that this is the extent of my restoration. The car has 24, 880 miles with still 25K or 1 yr of factory warranty and extended maintenance .. it should sell. See pict.of new seat after scrubbing
