Due to stupidity and carelessness on my part, mishandling my briefcase in the car, I have chipped out a 4mm circle of leather from the passenger seat arm rest, exposing the blue foam underneath. Are there any quick, cheap and reasonable fixes for this?

I shall now flagelate myself with birchwood  Chris

I reckon it should be easy to remove the arm rest and drop it off at a leather specialist to be repaired/recovered. Your dealer should have a tame leather fitting guy. Or chips away could fill the hole?
I've never examined a HSE armrest but there must be a way to remove it?

No pics of the self-flagellation please  At work

Easiest & cheapest is perhaps just to switch & replace? I guess LR has lots of ready-made armrests in your colour of leather? Well, at least it is free just to ask them. 2008 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Automatic, Caspian Blue, Alpaca, Moon roof, Exclusive pack.

I was thinking more along the lines of a ChipsAway-fill-the-hole solution. There must be some synthetic "leather" filler that can be used.. Chris

Unfortunatly they are not real leather just imitation leather or PLASTIC if you prefer to hear that word, like the side panels of your leather seats

So if you are going to get one recovered, why not do both in REAL LEATHER  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
