Default Help with leather seat

Hello everyone. Last week I was wearing a jacket, when I got down from the truck I accidentally tore the seat from the outside left side (it is a small clean cut). Any ideas on how to fix this? I called an upholster and he wants to disassemble the whole seat to fix it. I'll post a picture right now.

Call the dealer, they have guys that repair the leather for a price. make sure they do the repair outside to match the color or else it looks horrible.

I'll probably contact the leatherique guys thanks Savannah Buzz. Have you tried leatherique or know someone?. Rovin4Life thanks for the suggestion, but the thing is that were I live there is not a dealership and that might imply leaving me without a car. Thank you guys!

call any dealer, of any make and they will have a guy do it. Plus work with the guy personally and he can set up a time to make it right. Trust me, that company will do a poor job. The guy the dealer uses has to be good or else they won't do business with him.

I'll look at the dealerships tomorrow. How long do you think the job might take to get done? Do you know more less how much they might charge for the job? Again thanks for the advice Rovin4life!

75-150 depending on the area and the skill. Plus outside in the winter time they charge more.

I've got the same problem in my LR2. The previous owner ripped the bolster on the driver seat and I'm not sure what to do. Land Rover seat covers? seems as if that would be the cheapest option.
