I have a 1993 40th anniversary edition that has a drivers side left bolster worn in spots. No tears but worn. Any suggestions or business to repair wound be appreciated. Live in zip code 34953.

You can re-dye leather, there are a lot of youtube videos on the subject. Maintain with a quality leather product.

Then Sit in the car facing the door, and swivel. Don't bang the bolster every time you get in the car.

I have the dye and it works. I want to find someone that can replace it in my area. The car is in pristine condition and all original with 42k miles
