Seats v. Seat Covers !

I see the 1st thing in the interior to wear out is the drivers side left bolster. Then the front seat bottoms crack and the back threads desintegrate. My question is, can we buy ONLY the covering from a vendor and not the entire seat? Very seldom are the springs or foam cushions destroyed, just the cloth. Instead of buying the entire seat and paying $$$$ for shipping, can the covering just be loosened or taken off somehow? I am considering removing the left bolster only and re-sewing the tweed to look as absent as possible to prevent further wearing out.

:confused:
 
Yes the parts can be removed. That is what the reupholstery shops do and usually they do a much better job than the average joe car owner. They can install covers, but usually they just manufacture new ones out of material right there at the shop.
