Seat cracking fix

Typical driver's side upholstery cracking... options to fix? From patching, replacing and anywhere in between.

Run it by an upholstery shop for estimate. Could also consider some form fitting seat covers.

I’d like to tell you how to fix that area but I’m with the Moocher. Go to an upholstery expert and remove that seat cover The rest of the seat looks great...slowly remove that section by taking apart the stitching and replace that section. 2.5 - 3 hours in mostly all labor.
