No but can help you with your spelling of specialist

You didnt ask for a name, you asked is there a specialist out there that you can contact, google appears to indicate yes, there are many specialists out there you can contact.

:) and i was hoping you would help him with 'anyboby' or 'recomendations' :unsure:

 

There are also answers within these forums but he didn't search. I entered 'upholsterer' and found plenty of good info.

It would be easier and cheaper to get a good replacement seat. You could dismantle a spare passenger side front seat and build up a good drivers seat.

i agree with Pob. the cost of having it repaired professionally will come to more than a new set of seats. a pair of fronts just sold on ebay for £20 and the passenger was mint. i would just wait for another set to come up and take them apart. if you have basic sewing skills you will do a fine job of patching the seats together.

failing that, wait until the summer and i will be selling my front seats. would be happy to remove the material to save on posting

Which was why I said replace in my 1st reply, by far the simplest and cheapest way forward to replace damaged cloth.
