Default Torn seat; what do I do?
Just noticed a split on my Mahindra seat. The foam is showing and the split is about 6 inches long. What should I do? I would like to get at least another season out of the seat.

Cheers....Coffeeman

grab some scrap vinyl, some needle and thread and go to work. duct tape and warm weather won't mix very well. unless you like a sticky butt.

go buy some goop (actual brand name) it's a vinyl/leather "glue". Some times you can also find "tennis shoe repair" which is a similar thing.
at best it will hold the edges together and keep the wet off your foam. At worst it should stop the tear from getting worse.

otoh, you could stop at a farm store and buy a seat cover.

I use black gorilla duct tape. It works pretty good. Still ticked off that a 2005 seat is already tearing up so much.
