Lightbulb Leather repair Kit........

I have been doing a little research on leather repair and have seen a few posts on here from other members trying to fix and what to do, but no one has really answered with a product. I have a few cracks and one hole that is driving me nuts just looking at...(see below). Then I was at Wallyworld and ran into a product that I have seen at a few car shows and also our vendor at work (since I do some leather work) has this but for 7 bucks always dismissed it!http://permatex.com/products/Automot...Repair_Kit.htm So after 10 minutes of thought, I made the purchase and am going to try it. If it works, I will take pics of the process so others can use for reference.. If it works, then we all have another easy fix for our cracinpks instead of replacing the whole leather OR paying big money for a leather shop to do it. If anyone has any input, please post on here. Lets see how this goes!

After closer reading, the adhesive/filler takes 4 hours to dry. I am going to stop into work for a few minutes to get a heat gun but will patch the hole. You can do an inspection when we get the pnp switch done. I think this stuff will work! Hardest thing will be matching the leather color!
