I have three rips on the side of my driver seat. Any suggestions how to repair this well? I have a 1' square of OEM vinyl for repairs. If can't be repaired but needs to be replaced, who has OEM replacement upholstery (or the closest thing to it so no difference is noticeable)? Thanks.

Here's a gigantor image of my driver's seat that looked very similar to yours. German OEM vinyl (or so I was told) was used to fix the bolster. Click the image so you can see it humongous size. Notice the stitching on the edge of the bolster. I wasn't happy with the way it was done the first time, so I had the upholsterer redo it. Truth be told, I'm still not 100% satisfied because I think the stitching is slightly wider than the way it was originally done. But overall, I'm very happy with the way it turned out.
