Hey I have a small tear in both seats that looks like it can be fixed. I know they sell vinyl fix-kits that are $$$$$$. Is there any way that I can fix this on my own w/o buying a replacement kit. They are not that big maybe 1.5 inches on both of them, I'll take pictures once I get home and show you guys what I'm dealing with.
Thanks |

I replaced the whole piece of vinyl. It is not hard at all, if you have any access to a sewing machine.
If you take the seat out you can unclip all the vinyl from the seat in a few minutes. I found some new vinyl at a fabric store for 10$, and it matches exactly. Take the stiches out of the old piece and use the old piece as a template for the new one. Sew the new piece on the seat, clip the vinyl back on to the seat and your done! If you want I can post a pic tonight. Dave |
