Could anybody sugest a suitable fix for a problem I have with my drivers seat. The seam between the leather and fabric has come undone. Help!!!

If there aren't any car trimmers in your area (try yellow pages) you may want to show it to an upholsterer before the split spreads too far.
It sounds like the seat will have to come out of the car and the cover removed to get at the underside.

How old is the car?

If it's under warrenty then dealer for a free fix, if it isn't then a seat trimmer.

I know there are some decent seat trimmers your way as a bloke i used to work with has his seats redone for the calibra he used to drive. No idea who they were, but i do know they were in the Yellow Pages
