Katzkin makes replacement leather seat coverings. I looked into getting leather seat coverings installed on another car (Mazda 5) but decided against it for the time being. They are made in a central factory and use installers throughout the USA (IIRC).
On the Katzkin website, FAQ section, they state:
HOW WILL MY NEW LEATHER INTERIOR AFFECT MY AIRBAG AND OCS SYSTEMS? We perform a detailed inspection of each seat and our interiors are designed to maintain the integrity of the original airbag and OCS systems. We also perform ongoing safety testing using OEM factory specifications to ensure we continue to meet all factory requirements.
I think if they are replicating the seams/stitching etc. on the OEM seats, the side airbags will operate correctly. Katzkin leather seats can be had right from the dealer on models that don't come with leather from the factory (example - base model Mazda 5 or CX5).
