Leather Seats Slashed

[kari]

I had new tires put on my lexus rx300 and in doing so the technician had some sort of tool in his back pocket and put two 3 inch slits in my leather seats. They are paying for the fix/replacement. The problem is the place I am dealing with cannot find swatches. They are thinking that the whole bottom of the seat will have to be redone. Is anyone familiar with replacing or patching the leather seats?

Thank you

Since its their bill replace the whole seat leather with genuine Lexus leather, only way to ensure the right match. $1000 or so at the dealer.

Agreed get it done at the dealer by replacing the whole lower seat cover.

Do not accept any patch job. Have LEXUS replace the leather and send them the bill.

Forget about replacing the leather, why bother when you can have Recaro, as in this hot BMW :D
