My beloved '09 E350 Sport has a bit of a problem.


The driver's seat bolster (under my left thigh) has a 3in. split; or at least it is about to fully split.


My normally very helpful dealer has not been very helpful; they referred to me to a local car/boat upholstery shop who they thought could "probably" match the Cashmere M-B Tex.


Well, "probably" doesn't sound good enough to me as I want actual OEM M-B Tex material used.


Is there a U. S. source of such material? If so, I intend to order the material and then go to an upholstery who specializes in high end work.


Thanks in advance for any assistance.

My dealers are more helpful. They can order me a set of skins for 2 front seats for ca $3000.
Go to good upholstery as advised. The rip likely can be repaired without replacement.
When I had a boat I did buy a vinyl repair kit with several colors, textures and iron for such repairs.

I believe I've located a source for actual MB Tex...www.worlduph.com. They have sent me swatch for inspection, and its the real deal!




Now I'll order some material and then go to a local auto upholstery shop for the replacement work.
