Just because the seats aren't a quick and simple interchange doesn't mean the Cobalt seats can't be adapted to fit your HHR. Customizers do this type of swap all the time with some ending up being relatively easy (cheaper) and some more complex (costly) but it can be accomplished. Check with some trim or auto shops in your area and I'll bet you'll be able to find someone who can give you some guidance or even tackle the whole job and make it happen.
Aren't there safety liabilities involved with switching out seats? I remember many moons ago I wanted to swap out my mini-van's middle bench seat with two captains chairs, but the shop wouldn't do it because of safety reasons.

I dont know about the safety issues. As long as the seat is securely mounted within the vehicle and doesnt interfere with safety restraint devices, it shouldnt be a problem. As far as what RoadDawg said I know a guy in town that does this type of work. Looks like I might as well hit him up :) Besides, I'll just take the seats for $100. If anything I can use them in my rec room haha. Awesome gaming chairs??

As you state lots of places will modify seats to fit the consumers needs if that is what they desire.
