I was looking for any suggestions on how to remove the dents or impressions made in leather seats from having a car seat installed?

I haven't tried anything my kids are 6 and 3 they aren't getting out of them anytime soon but I had the chance to take them out and get a picture to ask for the future or if it comes up in a detail later on

Steamer, 75 percent of the seat covers i put on have been vacuum packed and take a boat ride from asia

they are full of lines and dents, i just hit them with the steamer and they look perfect.

Might try that on my wife's car just in case I screw something up I don't want to damage my truck lol. Like I said before they will be in those seats for a few more years my kids are tiny lol.

Direct steam ? Steam through towel? What steamer are you using?

Thanks

we sold our rav4 after almost 3 years with 1 car seat and 1 year with 2. it was leather, but i did find that a good clean with leather clean and conditioner and then a few days without the seats in, did a pretty good job itself bringing it back. Right now we have an explorer with leather. Like you my kids are 6, 3 and 1. Not getting out anytime soon either. Most likely the car will be traded in and I dont expect it will hurt the value. Anyone buying the explorer most likely will have kids too. So the marks are really only ever visible when the seats out for cleaning. Otherwise they're hidden.

So I think my solution is to sell the car? hahahaha
 
The steamers we use are a pacific steam PSE-2 and Jiffy steamer J-4000

I use the PSE-2 on covers before i put them on the frame

and the Jiffy steamer if the cover is already on the frame
 
I had this same problem in my 2013 BMW E93. Mine simply came out naturally over the course of a few days. I also dropped the top a couple days to speed it up with the sun.
