I have a 2014 with the blue accent interior package. There are a few marks in some of the seat bases that I would like to touch up i’ve seen many companies that offer a leather repair/touchup kit that seems like it would do what I need they all have some type of leather dying gel as the first step but you need to know what color gel you’re going to get

I was wondering if anybody knew what the Ford leather code is or the color of the leather in the seats where the blue accent package has been installed from the factory it certainly is not black , and I’ve seen some photos where the base of some seats has deep scratches which have a very bluish tint. So I guess the actual leather color is some shade of blue.

I’ve also never seen any OEM replacement covers for these - only in black. Not to minor that bad yet, but I do have an area that’s very near the blue cloth. Insert that I think will probably go in a few years. I really don’t want to have to put seat covers over them, and I live in a town that has a few if any interior leather repair places. (I have some minor work I’d like to get done on an Audi ,and the places that seem like they do interior work will never call back when I leave the messages) So I don’t expect to be able to get any repair work done here.

Look up Fibrenew. They are a chain company that can fix/match the coloring and make them look new again. I just had them redo two old tan Lexus seats from a car with 171k miles and the seats were gross. The seats now look new and I’m pretty impressed with the work. It cost me $425 to have two seats redone completely and they fixed a tear on a Bo,stet and a rip in the perforated leather. I’m a believer after this.

eBay has quality replacements not exactly oem . The color and style matches perfectly if you go that route replace the bottom cushion it’s probably worn . I found a experienced local guy did the install for $30 think the total was around $400 top and bottom

I bought an OEM driver's side bottom replacement cover in blue years ago- so they do/did sell them.

Edit: Found the email- got it from Tasca in 2016, it was on clearance at the time so I got it cheap. Mine has the heated and cooled seats, so that cover part # is specific to those options, and the blue interior option.
