Default Patch a tiny hole in a seat?

What would you recommend to use to seal a tiny hole in the side of a seat. It's only the size of a BB hole, but I don't want it to get worse.

Is that a solo seat i saw on ebay the other day? Either way there is vinyl glue that will hold it together. Pick it up at any automotive place!

Yeah I got it for like $30. Tiny hole didn't bother me. I will check out the vinyl glue, since the hole is so tiny.

Yes, it's a good seat. Looks good and is comfortable. It's a good height.
