Thanks for all the ideas. I have no idea what caused it. Neither DH nor I ever wears any clothing with hard pieces in the back, nor do we put long protruding things in our back pockets. Oh well.
The two bids I have so far are from upholstery repair people who were recommended. DH found a used seat in the same leather/same vintage for $200 at a junkyard about 100 miles away. However my seats are powered and heated so I’m a bit nervous about swapping it out. By the time we pay $200 for a seat, the gas to retrieve it, and pay someone to install it, it seems like we’d be better off just paying a local upholstery place that will guarantee their work.
I like the idea of trying the DIY repair kit. DH is meticulous and detail-oriented so he probably can do as good a job as anyone on DIY. We will try that first and if that doesn’t work, go to Plan B.
Will update when we try this. Thanks again!
