Just get it repaired at your local auto upholstery shop. I had had to replace side bolster sections and arm rest covers on a couple of trucks. It was pretty reasonable...

Talk to a local auto dealer and ask them who they use for interior repair work. They all have an expert they depend on for fixing little issues like yours and you will be surprized at how reasonable these guys are when it comes to replacing panels or repairing minor burn marks etc.

dang you can get a new one from gm for a discount. PM me if you need the guys info. if you send him your vin and what part you need he can give you a quote. he works at a gm dealer and gets stuff cheaper then my dealer will sellstuff to me. for example i got my new front hub for my 2000 tahoe from him for 175 plus shipping and from the dealer it would have been 292.

You gotta love that JUNK GM leather.........I have never seen such cheap crap in my life!!!!!!!!!!!

You can buy complete replacement factory covers (upholstery) on Ebay...bottom or back for $150 to $175 each. I have done it and it is VERY easy.

Also.....Covercraft makes VERY nice work type covers out of the same material that the car covers are made of.
