I have a pair of black leather 69 seats, that they are getting rotten, ispecially in their back parts. actually the back parts do not exist.
Do I need to add a new parts of leather for their backs, or it is better to throw them and buy new seat covers?
I think the genuine and worn off leather worths the trouble. What do you think?
 
I bought a pair of new leathers on Ebay last year...one on the projects I would like to get done this year, but the JEEP needs the attention right now. I used to see these new leathers avaialble from time to time from a guy who imports them at a reasonable price. Check that out.

It is really your call. If you mix the new with the original, you will likely have to replace the older portion of leather in the future sooner, but that is not necessarily a given, it is a matter of your intentions. Good luck.
 
I know that the new covers are a bit expensive and I think they look a bit tacky...
Myabe I can fix these covers for now and later when I find the cash I can replace them... maybe...
and lets not forget they are the original covers the old ones I mean.
