Pelican Technical Article: Installing 997 Seats Into a 986 Boxster

Here's a link to an article describing the installation of 997 seats in a 986. It should give you an idea of the differences in the systems. I think it would be fairly easy to install non-memory 986 seats in a Cayman since all you would need is a power and a ground to operate the seat motors.

As a previous poster said, you will be giving up side impact protection.
