So stupid me who decides to have a smoke in his new beloved Mustang burns a hole in the leather directly in the middle of the seat. Here's the story: I was sitting outside of the door and lit a match. Well a little piece of the match where the sulfur is flew into the car and I thought it landed on my lap (I was wrong as I later found out). Well I go to get in my car after work and notice a burn hole , not big but big enough to drive me carzy , in the seat. My question is what can I do to get this repaired?? I know there are patches, etc., but the opinions on this site I take seriously and with high regard. I am not going to do it myself as I am handy with tools and automobiles, but not upholstery. Any suggestions and opinons are welcome. Thank You!!

luckily there is a bunch of stuff out there to fix burns in leather. It shouldnt be too difficult to repair, but....

nicotine is bad! no smoking in your 05 ever again :nono:

 

Yes...the only thing you should be smoking with your GT is other imports

 

Google a company called Leather Medic. They'll come to you, and fix it reasonably. I used them to repair the vinyl on my boat, similar story... they did a fantastic job, I can't even find where the repair was. Completely like brand new.

 

:shock:

C'mon people.... don't... smoke.... in the Pony..... :bang:

 

Check EBAY:
I've seen OEM seat covers on there from people who have customized their interiors.
Don't fix it...car is still "new"...replace it!

 

I wasn't literally smoking in my car. I was getting out and the wind was blowing so I lit a match before I got out. I never smoke in my car though, I never have, this is the first time the smell of cigarettes has even come close to the car. thanks I'll check out that company.

Sorry to hear that. I have heard that leather can be repaired ver successfully.

I am a smoker as well and took a vow with my pony that the only thing I would smoke, is her tires.

Good luck.

 

Another reason to cast of that monkey.

 

C'mon fellas it was an honest mistake, like it never happened to any of you guys?? (maybe not in the mustang, but previous cars).
