Default 2004 leather issue

The interior of my GT vert is in great shape,except the bolster on the left side of the driver's seat.It sas wear,and just developed a hole yesterday.
Have any of you had success with just having this section replaced(or even just a matching patch put on it?)
Not necessary to buy a complete interior set,is it?
Thanks.

Most car restoration places charge quite a bit for work on leather seats.

If I were you I'd look for some used seats. Check Craiglist or some local junkyards.

You can usually find them fairly cheap.

Thanks-I'll check with a few local yards.I was fine with the cracking,but now I have a dime size hole with foam showing.
I did find a set online,but the bolster was in worse shape,as was the rest of the seat,and I think they wanted 250 or 270(however I think that was a shipped price)I expect most driver's seats of this vintage to have an issue unless the driver was a bantam weight.My car is relatively low mileage,but planting my 6'4" frame into the car has taken a toll.
I will check with the mfg that supplies LMR with covers to see if they'll sell me a 6"x6".
