Little alternative but to look for a good upholstry shop. Best resource are other owners, particularly of classic cars. Go to a car show, find a car with a really nice interior, and find out who did the work. I found a local shop that way. Another option is to find out who does work for big car dealerships. There's a local firm that installs leather interiors in cars that are shipped with cloth. Do really good work too. I had them redo the headrests in my Firehawk with a "Firehawk" logo. You might be surprised at how inexpensive a minor repair like yours might be, particularly if they think they might get more of your business down the road. Good luck.
