Default Leather repair kit

Hmm..

According to my search the cheapest leather repair kit I could find cost about $50 or so.

But check this out, I found something on eBay that's much cheaper and seems to work wonderfully on leather (according to its advertisement at least).

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...&category=4960

Has anyone here ever tried this product? If so, what's your experience with it?

Thanks!

Jon

I hate to say it, but there is no replacement for the seats EXCEPT new seats. I tried the www.leatherrepairkits.com kit, and it was pretty expensive as far as the repair kits go, they had the leather color matched and everything. It looked good, except it didnt look like leather, it looked like shiny plastic that was now melted and hardened over my seat. I drove on it for about a week and a half, then it started cracking, and peeling, it was horrible. I've tried to remove it all, and I was somewhat successful, but it looks ALOT worse than it did before I put this crap on there. Now, I have to get new seats, and the kit did not help at all. Do not do it, you will regret it. Also, you get what you pay for, if you want 9$ leather, be prepared.
