So my future car smells like new leather 
I'm seriously considering doing Ridies leather in my 02 as the driver's seat a very tiny rip in the bottom part. It's barely noticeable but it bugs me. I would have no problem getting the seats out (I've done it a couple of times already) but I have reservations on replacing the leather by myself. I'm in the middle of nowhere so it's not like I have a local upholstery shop nearby. Just a quick check on the internet shows one about 50 miles away. Not that there is a close autobody shop nearby but would they install the new leather?

You can watch videos on youtube. About 50% of our customers install these themselves, and we are told again and again that installing them is not as hard as they thought they would be.

There is a guy in south sac that does auto upholstery on 14th ave off of power inn road that will do BOTH seats ( cushions) as long as the tracks are good
and everything else works for under a grand . my seats have " corvette " embroidered on the back of the seat and he told me his wife can match what is there now. I dont think I would go to a body shop . look up auto upholstery shops
