wartime modified P.04 holster?

[spripple33]

Thank you all for the compliments. I am most likely not going to mess with any of the above-mentioned issues. One I am considering having fixed is the cover flap for the cleaning rod pouch. It's missing it's protective ears and, more importantly, the stitching holding it to the main body of the holster is coming loose.
I would possibly like to have the stitching in this area redone. The stitching on the rest of the holster still seems to be in good shape. I am kind of on the fence regarding the little protective ears. I could have these replaced and maybe the pull-up strap as well, but I don't think I want to go that far with it...
Kind of a conservation vs. restoration debate. I think I am leaning more towards conservation but welcome opinions on this also.
