Anyone here into upholstery?

Hoping someone here can give me some input. Drivers side seat leather pulls out of headrest piece. I'm hoping some steam or something will relax it enough to keep it from continuing. See picture.

You don't want to steam leather. Looks like something that needs to be correctly placed, in place, by the dealer. I worked professionally in leather for high end shops (boots, purses and made saddles etc) and leather needs to be done right or you will have a mess.

Awesome. Thanks for the heads up! I just HATE taking stuff to dealers. I avoid it when I can

The body shop at the dealer would have to deal with it, if they can be trusted to do it.

how is that plastic part holding? I'd look into ways to remove that. then investigate.
Did you simply try to push the leather under the plastic.
Also, I vaguely remember seeing a post where they exchanged that part for a CF. couldn't find the post about it though.
