Does it just plug and play though?This is one that would be ridiculously expensive to do because of all the individual parts that need to be swapped on the existing seat. The bottom rack alone is $575, then you need the side piece, switch, connectors, wiring, and the seat back frame, then you have to strip your existing seat down and swap it onto the new parts. Everybody just searches car-part for one out of a wreck. That way, it just swaps right in and connects to the existing body harness connector, and you have your old seat to resale.
Yes... Plug and Slide...
The answer, just like the one he gave you, is yes. If you have the power driver seat, then the body harness contains the necessary wiring for the passenger seat. Power seats are not run through the BCM, so no settings changes needed. Plug n play.It's a serious question, regarding swapping a powered seat from a wrecked vehicle in, whether the body harnesses are the same on the body side regardless of power/manual seat
Actually thats the most realistic way to do it,buy the power seat from a wreck,save a load of moola.The answer, just like the one he gave you, is yes.

Haha yeah, it gets really trolley in other forums sometimes. I just like to add some funny gifs every now and thenSorry, I thought I read sarcasm because of the meme. There are definitely some condescending trolls on forums and it could be considered a dumb question. Thanks for the answer and clarification!
Kinda what I was thinking, I don;t have vented now but I do have heated. If I can find a wrecked Powered seat I'll have to swap fabric then probably just leave the OSB left alone and no vented lol.I would imagine you could enable the OSB for the vented seats in AlfaOBD, not sure if you can swap the physical controls in but probably could. Your Katzkin would have to have the special fabric that allows the vented seats to work otherwise you wouldn't feel it.
They might get close but it probably won’t be a perfect match. If they are good enough to match it then they probably won’t be cheap.
If you find a power seat your best bet would be to have the shop swap the cloth stuff onto the new seat. I don’t know if it’s the same pads underneath but that would be the easiest and most cost-effective way to do it. Plus it would be an exact match to the rest of the interior since it is your interior.
