OH NO!!! Leather seat tear... Solutions?

Just noticed a small tear in my drivers side leather seat... SUCKS! Anyway, doesn't look like a complete tear, but I'm sure it coming... Anyone had a similar problem? About 3/4 or so right under my left butt cheek.. Maybe there are some leather repair kits out there that i don't know about. ANY IDEAS? Thanks!

Get a hold of the used car mgr at your dealership and ask him/her if the interior people they use can fix it.

This dumba$$ stuck a screw driver in his hip pocket, proceeded to forget about it then sat down on the passenger side to clean the air vents. Guess where the driver blade went. I found a suitable repair kit and O'rielys that worked very well. My color matching isn't all that hot but other than that...
