Screwdriver popped a hole - Toyota Yaris Forums

behour · 01-29-2010, 05:28 PM

Forgot I had a screwdriver in my back pocket today.
As you can probably imagine I went to sit down and popped a large hole in my chair. Ridiculously dumb of me, when I told myself not to forget I had it in my back pocket about 2 hours before.

I am wondering what I can do to repair this hole. Seat covers the only option? Any recommendations for one? Anything other than seat covers that won't kill the bank? I have standard seats in a yaris hatchback. Can they be fixed?

There should be some professional upholstery repair places where you live, I would take the car by there and see if they can fix it. You might be amazed at what they can do...

been there . We know of someone that left their 2005 convertible MUSTANG running in the garage all night . Not long after that they traded it in for a 2007 COROLLA . Were worried that it may have damaged the motor . That's why we don't buy used vehicles . Never know how it was taken care of .
