Sagging seat
Can heating up the bolster (side of drivers seat) with a steamer shrink the material tight again or will it only stain the material. I believe the only leather part is he center areas. Anybody tried it?

There are seat kits to fix this problem. One vendor here sells a heavy duty foam replacement for $69 and another sells a kit with jute and extra foam to add to your seat. Do a search, lots of info.

Using a blow dryer or heat gun is a better solution for getting the leather to stretch/shrink.

Did you also fix the problem of the wires cutting into the seat bottom foam?
If not, here's an easy fix for that, which might help the other part too.
