Yes its common. check around for new seats.... get seat covers.... get them re-upholstered... sew it yourself, if you know how to do an inseam from the outside... just don't look at it, sit on it.... thats all the help I can offer, personally :)

I may be wrong but I believe thats a factory recall. Call your dealer and ask. May be a free fix.

ha! no way...i didn't even think to look at that on here. idk why. but yeah mine are tearing too! but mines an RS. but i dont think it makes that much difference. that'd be nice if they are a free fix. i think my usual duct tape work might be a lil tacky.

joeisme30 where are you located? Hard to offer you something if your too far away to come and get it. On that note why isn't it a requirement for everyone to state where they're from?

I've never heard of a factory recall on the seats...

but there was a TSB issued... so I don't believe it's free..
