Yes the seat covers are katskin. They come in a large variety of colors. They also provided the additional matching orange leather used in the front doors and back side panels. As for the DVDs in the back, your right on all accounts, my son is 15 and we plan to show the car. Beyond that I really hadn't planned to spend much time in the back. I've also recieved some feed back on the hood vents, I appreciate the feed back. Maybe we will concider removing them?? Anybody else have any thoughts on that? Every HHR stock or custom has a special quality to those of us that love them. I appreciate everyones kind words to date.
Thanks,
Seth

First I contacted Katzkin and requested their leather sample book. $10.00 I think. Once we recieved the samples we matched to the orange part of the flames to the available leather. I then contacted a place here in Dothan Alabama called Huston seat covers, we went over Tyler and I's design proposals with them. They took it from there, ordering the seat covers, extra orange leather and DVD players which also came from Katzkin. Once the materials arrived it only took two days to install by the professionals. We intend to add some more orange leather to the inside of the rear side door panels but don't have any additional plans just yet.

What about the dash cowl (not to do orange, but to replace with leather/vynil/alcantara/etc.)
Is the piece on the doors a built-custom-door, or is it the OEM/original part just covered?
Thanks,
Seth
