My interior is all original and in perfect shape except two small separations in the driver seat material.
I would like to clean (maybe wet vac) my carpets but I worry about introducing moisture into the carpet/interior. Should I take it all out to do it and just make sure it's dry before reinstalling? Also, any fix tips for the two small separations on the driver seat? Attached thumbnail(s) |
