I can find some leather repair places online but dont wanna recommend them cause ive never used them before. For wheels ppl around here go to Wheels America I believe.

Yeah my wife spilled a drop of hand sanitizer on my TL-S seats and the soft leather looks like it burned since she didnt notice right away. Sucks! So I also need a leather contact, it bugs me everytime I get in the car even though it's smaller than the size of a dime.

I just had my leather fixed on my driver's seat. It was badly ripped but after they fixed it - no one can tell it was there. They are located in Schaumburg area. I don't have their card on me now. I will give you more info later today.

How much did they charge you? Can you show some before / after pics if possible? I know you probably didn't take any before pics but can you show us some "older" before and after one? Furthermore, where are their location?

"D & L Auto Interior Repair"
337 Andrew Lane
Schaumburg, IL
847-951-3209 or 630-217-2956
Deacon or Lori (they work together - I believe they are married couple)

I don't know how much they charge since the dealer offered me to fix the seat free of charge.
I don't have any pictures as of yet but I can take some tomorrow and post it asap.
All I can say is that if no one told you where the leather was ripped, you would not know it was there.
Call them and ask for a quote - I'm sure they can stop by your home or office and fix it at the spot.

Here are some pictures...sorry about a delay







CLOSE-UP


I think they did a great job. I don't have any "before" pictures so you can't compare it but trust me - it was ripped pretty badly. If I did not circle where it was - you would not guess it...
As far as the holes - I did not try using a tiny drill yet...planning to do it soon...enough time has passed for it to cure but again, I did not have the time to do it.
Let me know what you think
