I'm thinking that rubber bumper (endura) repair stuff would be good for this. That's the 2-part epoxy-like material you use to repair/fill holes in GTO-type bumpers. It worked great fixing my rubber coated Trans Am steering wheel.

If I am not mistaken Frank has gone through the steps to repair holes as well as tears. From what I remember he would put a patch on the backside and then splice in on the front.

I've used the rubber tube repair kit with moderate success. I believe there is a better solution now-a-days, TomK can relay...

Sorry guys, I have been between homes right now. Watching dad's place while he is away in Canada fishing, but I do have them on a camera and as soon as I have some time, I will download some pics and post them.

You might want to try Loctite 495 super bonder part #49550.
It will stick just about anything to anything....including your fingers. It is clear so a repair shouldn't be very obvious. I keep a small bottle of it in the refrigerator. Stores best when kept cool.
