We have not because we would have to do validation testing on the seats to insure that the air bags deploy properly.

Crazy huh?

It's easier to take airbags completely out rather than to reuse them due to regulations.

Very nice & tasteful.

What's the story on the 4th Gen Camaro in the background? Any pics of what you are doing to that car?

Because it's shaped for proper hand and thumb placement - something that true performance car drivers demand and something that GM has yet to learn. Plus, the 4 spoke design looks much nicer and isn't the same wheel used in my grandmother's 2009 Malibu. The car should some with seats and a wheel like that straight from the factory. Hopefully the car's owner also plans on adding a real stereo system to compliment the new interior.

What would something like this cost for my 3LT '08 coupe?

Can I opt for the seats to retain original GM airbags?

Are you doing any sound deadening in the process?

Would you do a Kenwood nav/sound system upgrade in the process?


Awesome job. I'm just east of Kingston, ON.


Thanks,
