At 70,000 miles, the cover on my thigh support bolster (comfort seats) has come loose at the front edge, both driver and passenger side. Took an initial look, and it's not clear to me how this was attached and what I'll need to do to put it right again. Was this fastened with some kind of adhesive, or something else I'm just not seeing? Anyone else DIY'd this fix? Thanks.

Very hard to explain, but the edge of the leather cover must be re-inserted back into the seat frame groove on the front of the seat. There ate no clips or adhesive to hold it. Press down on the front of the thigh bolster to give you some slack with the cover and push the edge of the leather cover into the groove at the front. You my need to crawl under there to see what I'm talking about. The edge of the leather cover will be in a vertical, tucked in position when done. Like I said, kinda hard to explain...
