I have seen that fabric stuff, but I would not think it would work.

Personally I would change the seat fabric, or get seat covers. Take it to an upholster' or 2 & get some quotes for repair. Chanses are, Unless you park your car in a garage, & have less than 50K your seats are beginning to rot anyway from age... The fabric gets almost fragile & tears really easy.

You mentioned that your on a tight budget, but thats the best advise I can give you...
