On a few padded interior pieces, the black padded vinyl items, I have some small splits/cracks and wonder how these can be repaired to look good.
I was thinking of filling in the cracks with black paintable silicon and then painting the whole piece with black rubberized bumper paint but wondered if others had a better idea. thanks for suggestions |

Followed by the upper section.
Once removed you will need to harvest the metal from the old piece. This is most easily done using an small sharp knife to cut the stitches. Each side has one. Once removed, you will need to thread into the new section. Make sure the loop on the metal is at the top by the headrest, so you will feed the un looped section through from the top. This takes a little patience, and when you get to the corner you will need to be gentle as the path is more restricted and more difficult to find. With a little probing you will be able to get it through. Attached thumbnail(s) |
