If not there's always one of these.

It isn't as simple as it may at first appear. The seat cover contruction is actually rather complicated. The ribs in the back and swab are actually hand stiched leather "tubes" stuffed with cotton wadding. These panels would need to be unpicked from the piping and side pieces and new ones attached. However, it would be virtually impossible to use the same stitching holes and you would therefore end up with a row of perforations. As a consequence, the seats need completely recovering to ensure a satisfactory result.
