2013 PP with full leather seats.

My front passenger seat cover has come undone right on the front where it folds underneath.

Spent about an hour trying it get it back on with no luck. Looked at intact driver’s side to see how it goes on and can’t figure it out.

Pretty unnoticeable unless you’re looking for it, nevertheless, it’s driving me nuts.

I remember seeing someone post about a similar issue but can’t find the post despite searching.

Anyone else had this issue? Possible fixes?

(Will try and post picture when I’m able to get to the car)

Buy good used replacement seat, or find a reputable interior shop, and bring it back to new state.

The clip when it comes loose is actually pointed the wrong way. When back on the seat, it needs the tail (top of the J shape) facing up. I found it easy to use my arm and body weight to compress the foam at the front edge of the seat. Then brace the tail against the metal frame. Then push kind of out and down on the curved part. This will cause it to "flip" or "cam" over and then hook onto the metal frame.
