Leather Seats - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have a 1LT and I want to put in Leather seats, but I would like to get a few opinions beforehand.

I am stuff between buying a stock set from here or a dealer for around $600 - $1,000 for just the regular Black leather that comes stock.

Or I was looking at the Katzskin Interior, I emailed them to see if they can do Black with Blue or Synergy Green Stitching and RS Embroidered headrests still waiting on a reply and a quote.

I was also talking to a local Interior place, they do the interiors for $900 installed. It's their own leather and I saw a used Camaro at the dealer with this leather, and it was okay, felt like they added a little padding and it was not bad but nothing too crazy.

I just am looking for opinions from those who have already done it and I have heard people complain about the factory leather looking bad after only a few months so I'm skeptical. Just looking for opinions and maybe some knowledgeable people can tell me what I should be looking to pay price wise for the Front/Back Seats.

I have the stock IO leather, but I would go with Katzskin so you can do something custom

Katzskin...do a green houndstooth insert on black leather or something to tie your colors together.

Aww, sad I did not make the poll. You can come check out our seats since we are in FL.

I vote for DSV. Not the cheapest but amazing. We have 40k miles on ours with 0 wear!
