So... I've got a little tear in the driver seat...

Any way for me to repair this before it gets any larger?

Do those infomercial liquid leather type things work?

Let me know what you do. I have a tear in waiting :D

I think it's from the button on my back pocket hitting the leather when I sit...very annoying.

They sell these patched that will slide under the leather and glues them back together. Its the same thign they do to pants. If your careful enough you wont even see the tear marks. For leather Im not sure but they do the same thing to them.

Yeah - what ^^ He ^^ said....

Its kinda like a carpet seam - where the adhesive patch goes through the tear and you carefully pull the torn edges back together and press. Then there's also the liquid seam filler and if you do it right, it won't show too badly, but I gotta tell ya, if its a problem area now, it will continue to be a problem after you patch it. Might wanna opt for seat covers or something if you're wearing clothes that tear the leather up! :o
