There is a place over in Hawaii that does a great job on high end cars. They're stitched "specially." They're the only place in Hawaii that does them so just look them up online and drive over there to get it done. It takes 5 min so watch a commercial or two while you wait

(Thinks hes superior to everyone else)

(Is a condescending asshole)

(No one likes him)

Ignoring the assclown above --

I'd check on getting it repaired at any local upholstery shop. There are dozens in the NJ area, but it'll be hard for people to recommend a specific place without you being a bit more specific about your location.

Depending on the cost (it shouldn't be that much money) and the overall condition of that seat -- sometimes its very inexpensive to replace the whole seat. A cursory search at car-part.com shows me that there is an abundance of donor dakota black seats in the NJ area for reasonable prices.

Thanks for your help.
Any recommended upholstery shop in Northern NJ? (Wayne/Paterson Area)
