Does anyone have a template for cutting new leather for the S.Graphic? I want to replace my nasty leather.

Is your current covering still all complete and in one piece? If so, just dampen it with a wet cloth and keep it damp until you can peel it off. Gently. Lay it out flat and put a weight on it to keep it flat until dry. There's your pattern. Cut new material just slightly oversize to compensate for any shrinkge and trim with razor blade when installing.
