I bought the factory leather seat uphoulstry off ebay for 300 bucks but havent installed yet. You could get some of them and put it on then its like you have new seats.

I'm with you buddy I'd love to put in Chevy seats if mine ever "go out"!! they're **** comfy too and i'm sure power and bolt pattern could be worked out without too much hassle. Do the pass. seat first so if its not fully complete at least you can still drive it then the drivers side should be easier just wireing. not sure where to look for them, maybe ebay or aftermarket replica cuz dealer would want lots for them i'm sure. . . hope this helps some...

FYI:
I had a small hole in my drivers seat bottom but mainly a flat left cheek so i unbolted each bottom and swapped them. The plastic's mounts need to be bent to look clean but otherwise easy! the center seat pushes the used to be drives left cheek up enough to where its unnoticeable - maybe a quick fix for someone haha

I started to do that. I don't think it worked to well. I had to make all new brackets. It was a lot of work. I wired them up too - everything works now. If you want some more help let me know. I'm happy with them now though - great seats.
