I know the cloth seats have vinyl bolsters. The drivers side vinyl 
bolsters are both demo'ed on the car I want to buy, and I wanted to 
replace it. I wanted to use real leather to make it more durable and was 
wondering if it that was the way the leather option did it. After the 
seats are out I thought why not do it all in leather (got access to an 
industrial Juki sewing machine) Maybe a thinner perforated leather to 
replace the cloth and something more durable for the sides. Is it true 
that the leather bolsters are thinner or flatter? If thats the case the 
vinyl version might be a bit too "ergo" to fit retrofit leather around.
