how about a patch kit, designed for rubber rafts?

if you live on the coast or in white-water country, you should be able
to find a local retailer.

Subject: Patching driver's seat cover

My driver's seat cover (vinyl) has a tear in it and I've tried patching
it with duct tape.  After a few days the duct tape seems to start
curling and sliding from one edge...probably because of my body heat and
movement.  It also is enlarging the tear.  I wonder if there is a better
way to patch the seat cover, something that will last a while until I
want to replace it.  I also need to figure out a way to fill in a
depression in the foam, right under the tear.  Any ideas?
