2001 Maxima - Driver seat replacement

So my driver's seat in the 2001 Maxima GLE is getting pretty worn out and the left seat-side bolster (where my fat behind gets in) is getting pretty squished after nearly 20 years. The seat is grey and leather.

Are there OEM replacement kits to get these seats recovered? Any stashes of OEM complete seats out there to just buy a complete new seat and swap it in (from various years)? If none of those, what are some good choices for seat covers even though that doesn't fix the bolster problem?

LKQ's in your area? Car-part.com? I'm not aware of any kits, and I've done a bit of searching during my quest to swap 7th gen seats into my 03. I've been to LKQ's in my local area (Tampa) and seats are a dime a dozen, pick your color.

No LKQ's in my area (Norcal - East Bay area), but plenty of salvage yards. I'll have to poke around.

Use car-part.com to search. All of your local yards are going to use this database. Great resource.
