What is shared w/HHR and other GM's?

I saw this while browsing 07 Corvettes and thought......hhmmmmmm...That looks pretty familiar....And I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed any "shared" or interchangeable parts.......

07 Corvette steering wheel....




06-07 HHR steering wheel

If I remember correctly our sunroof comes off a Cadillac CTS and the rear hatch touch pad thing comes off a Vette. The 6 Disc CD player is in a bunch of GM vehicles.

Yup. This was brought up a few months ago on another thread. It's pretty cool, huh. Even the gauges are almost vette-like

Doesn't the HHR share it's basic chassis with the Cobalt?
that would mean A LOT of parts are shared with that model.
correct me if im wrong.

That corvette interior seems pretty dull considering that it is a vette...

Our "waterfall" is very similar to that of an SSR too...at least the knobs buttons and switches....they are just as "hollow"

my big bro has one...but he lives in Indianapolis. Been trying to get some Big brother SSR, little brother HHR pics

Nope. You are correct. The HHR is on a Cobalt Frame.

No problem. If I recall, I don't think the other thread had pics. So this one works just fine.

In answer to your question...yes the HHR is based on the Cobalt platform. Google results to demonstrate this are HERE.
