Im looking at buying a leather interior for my touring.. typical wear hole in the bolster..

Can these be patched up or does the entire seat need a re-trim?

Thanks

You may be able to get away with getting the wife to unstich the bolster area and then restich another one in it's place.

A specialist would also be able to colour and grain match your existing leather pretty well :wink:
If it ain't broke, fix it till it is
