Can you make a patch & stitch (& glue) it from the underside?? Would involve removing the cover.....more work but better results!

My buddy has some major problems with his seat on his ski doo sarfari.

He went out and bought a yard or so of some material like pleather. Took the seat off and basicly we just recovered it, right over the old one.

It looks pretty good for an hours work. The back near the tail lite coould have been better, but we were cold and it was getting late.

With a little time, you can redo it yourself and have it turn out nice

you could just have the uphostry shop put a black seat on it.

"Go to Lebeau Vitres d'Auto (place that does car windshields and whatnot) in Chicoutimi and ask for Jean Lavoie. Tell him Jean Bélanger sent you."

Hope that's clearer

Thumbs up Seat repair

Hey Arctic 4589,

I'm sure Frost understood me.......... No offence bud but we DO speak more than ONE language in Canada.

The place where i sent him to is also very good with trim, auto accessories and mobile electronics.

See ya!!!!!
