I've only had the car for a month and a half....
It has "leatherette" (Or do they call that pleathur?)seats (basically, a layer of pureed leather particles glued to vinyl.
The seats look really good for a 8 year old car with so many miles.( I suspect they aren't the original seats.)
Or they did...
It seems that whenever I get in the car, my hips hit the side bolster on those fancy sports seats. (I'm a wide person (No, not fat, just wide (mostly)) And that seems to have a detrimental affect on that part of the seat. It's worn the leather coating thru in that spot. And there's a tear next to the spot.
So, my choices -->
- Drive naked so my clothes don't rub against the leather (uhmm... no. Scary thought! Most likely illegal anyway.)
- Tape? Or something to protect that spot.
- Some kind of car cover
- Real leather seats.Iwonder if there's a junkyard around here...
I think I'll go with the car cover. If I can find one that'll fit that style of seat. Or maybe something that protects JUST that part of the seat? Like a band of material around it?(Hmmm.... how would it attach?)
