Nothing like a field experiment :)  Be sure to check for DTCs, esp those related to air bag/safety measures.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I'll get some pix up when the job is complete. Hopefully I'm the first one to put a 2015 interior in a 2011

Glad it all worked out.

Nice to have a known option as Gen 4.1 seats wear out.

So long suede! Only modification I had to make was the seat belt mount point, I guess on 2013 and up, the seatbelt is mounted to the floor, on my 2011 it is mounted to the seat frame, just had to transfer the bracket.

Matches the interior quite well!  Do the seats feel just as supportive as the native SHO seats?

they feel better actually. Much more solid feeling. I also cut some bigger holes in the foam for the A/C seat feature. Now they get realllyyy cold.

Was the foam easy to cut up?  It's not the kind that poops all over you the moment yiu try to cut it, right?

Nope. There is this thin foam stuff covering the air channels. I cut holes in that, not the actual seat foam. The seat foam was in excellent condition, like new fyi
