Has anyone repaired driver's seats in your XJ? New foam, replaced torn/worn viynal?

I'd like to fix mine, and I've heard anywhere from $120 to $200 to have it done.

I picked up a passenger seat for 35 to fix my broken drivers seat pan. Cherokeeforum has a write up about broken pans, and the passenger seat pans are the same as drivers so just unblot and swap. if i was you i'd hit the jyards and find a passenger seat that matches and swap it out

He is right. That is the easiest fix.

I had mine redone at the same time I had my headliner replaced. Leather seats are beyond my areas of expertise.

Yeah getting a passenger seat makes the most sense. I may be hitting the junk yard after all. I just wonder how close a match in color and seat style I can find.
