Leather interior for 2011

I own a 2011 Panel and am currently trying to aquire leather interior for it. I have purchased a rear seat and belts for it. Is there an aftermarket supplier that sells for a 2011? I am finding it for 2010, but it does not list for 2011? Maybe the airbag sensors in the seats? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

2010 shouldn't be any different than 2011.

I think they Dropped the Leather Option for 2011 in the Panels, not sure about the windowed versions. I know they dropped the 2LT Panels. SS's were dropped as well.

Any year Leather seats from an HHR should fit fine I believe.

My '08 had the Ebony Cloth front seats, I added an Ebony cloth rear seat from an '09, then I got Black Leather seats front and rear from an '07 and they just simply bolt in.
I could have got them out of an '06 - '10, still the same I think.

Get the dash piece with the Heated Seat buttons on it, install that and have the Dealer turn ON the Option in the computer. (Altho, that may Not work in the '11's now that the Option is no longer available, but my guess is they left that all alone and the option is still in there.)

You can have any seat reupholstered with any material. My cheap as leather split on me so I had it replaced with vinyl. It was recommended by the upholster as it is better lasts longer and looks almost IDENTICAL to the leather it replaced. The leather GM uses is very bad quality in this vehicle. Out of all the cars I have owned, this leather is the cheapest. So I would recommend having it done in vinyl. Vinyl combination's is unlimited on what colors you can can mix and match with. A lot easier to clean and take care of.

The leather in my 08 hhr is better than the leather in the $42,000 03 retro t-bird that I had. The semi truck I drive 2000 Mack has Ultra leather seats which are man made . After 700,000 miles they have held up very well and are still softer than real leather, and no cracks or splits... John

Katzkin has leather seat covers for just about any vehicle. When I bought my Ford Focus new, the dealer gave me a brochure on them. They use the same seats but remove the cloth upholstery and replace it with leather. Really good quality from what I could tell and it looks like it came right out of the factory with it. Probably run $1200-1500 installed. Less if you do it yourself.
