Default Where to get a leather sample?

Do our seats have extra leather underneath enough to get a 1x1" square sample? If not where could I get a ebony sample? Im looking to buy this kit.

Dude, I know I post this in every thread....

Our cars do not have real leather interior.... The material is coated in urethane.

Why waste money on this kit? No reason to at all. Get some Zep Commercial leather cleaner. It cleans like no other and smells like the real thing.

You're going to spend $60 bucks on cleaner that isn't going to benefit you any more than pep boys bought Lexol.

Just a friendly word of advice...

I just realized that.

Here's some more advice, have it done professionally. We have a guy that comes to our shop and does a fantastic job.

It's not a permanent fix, and will wear out in under a years time. Even faster if its a daily driver.

How bad is the seat?

Its not that bad just a few fadded lines on the driver side bolster my car has really low miles im not sure why its even faded at all. Maybe they left a window down 1 time or somethin im not sure but its the only thing on my car that bothers me the rest of it looks brand new.

Huh, that is weird. Take my advice and check your local phone book for guys who specialize in this stuff. Their repair, is probably about the same amount of $$$ as the kit. The hassle/mess saved will be more than worth it.
