Learn how to repair the upholstery of the front seat where a hole has formed. Find a strip of upholstery at the bottom of the seat from which to cut a small piece of fabric slightly larger than the hole.

Fill the hole with glue and place the fabric piece over it; using a small screwdriver, insert the piece into the hole and allow the glue to dry. Cut a small strip of fabric from the edge and fray it with a cutter to create fabric dust. Apply more glue over the patched hole and add the dust to level it off.
