There's an auto upholstery shop in town that is very well regarded and
while
talking with him regarding my car I got to wondering if I could pull out
my
Cherokee seats and have him leatherize them. FAR 43.100 states pilots
can:

(11) Repair upholstery and decorative furnishings of the cabin, cockpit
when the repairing does not require disassembly of any primary structure
or
operating system or interfere with an operating system or affect the
primary
structure of the aircraft.

Hmmmm. Does "repair upholstery" cover "replace with leather" (or pleather
for that matter)? Does taking out a seat constitute "disassembly of a
primary structure"? I'm pretty sure other people have done this but I was
just wondering how "legal" it is.
