Why not simply pay a competent upholstery shop $25-$35 to make them like new again? I recently had a tunnel cover re-done in black leather for $24!

However, cheap as they will be, carriage to the USA may make them nearly as expensive as buying new over there. When mine was falling to pieces I originally planned to re-cover it. I was surprised to find that the re-covering kit from Rimmers cost almost as much as a complete unit - certainly the difference wasn't enough to make it worth going through the difficulty of trying to do the covering myself. That's why I bought second-hand from TRGB.
