@jharrison: Go to this thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...2&postcount=40 and download the service manual. Once un-rar'ed, look for "Front Seat Cushion Cover Replacement.pdf". If you're a DIYer, might as well get the leather off, and take it to a leather repair person like potmilkz suggested. At least this way, the leather is much more portable than taking your car in. =)

Worst case scenario: Once you take off the leather, look for a part number, and order it and replace it yourself.

Good luck!
