2011 Silverado Leather seat re-do
Flyin6:
I'll start a thread on how to change out the seat covering material in a chevy truck. I'll be using my 2100 Silverado LTZ HD truck as the test subject for this changeover.
I started by directly contacting Leather Seats.com to speak with them. I met a very helpful gentleman named Steve who guided me through the steps. He was able to answer all of my questions and I'd say the whole process took about 15 minutes. He gave me a military discount and I placed the order which came in just under $1200 for the front and the back.
As per his recommendation and my reasoning, I selected the "Deluxe kit which places leather everywhere on the seating surfaces that the factory. The rest is high-quality vinyl. I might note that my leather is still fine from 2011 and 138,000 miles, but the vinyl has begun to crack and peel. If I get another 11 years out of this new interior, I'll be in great shape.
Steve has emailed me a couple of times not checking on the details and today, verifying whether or not if I have a side impact airbag. I believe I do not based on my inspection.
Below is today's email from him:
Hey Don,
I definitely think the Black and Mitt brown color combo looks great. I was talking to production and they wanted to see if you could send photos of your seats over. They also wanted to make sure that you had side impact airbags on the front seats.

The insert color is Mitt Brown while the sides and back will be black
Sammconn:
So chief, to be clear they recommend the leather vinyl as factory?
I would have thought all leather may be better.
Looking for clarification as I’ll likely be doing this as well.

Truck is black.
Basically the same color scheme GMC currently uses
