Thanks. I have some experience with seat upgrades. I started with unheated, two-way power seats in my Boxster. In a series of steps, I upgraded to a heated 12-way power seat with memory on the driver's side and a heated 8-way power seat on the passenger's side. The DIY I wrote describing the process is too large to upload to this forum, but I posted them here:

I also installed some C63 AMG seats in my daily driver 2005 Mercedes C230. It took me a very long time to figure out the electronic controls, but I was able to make it work: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w203/716541-seat-swap-2009-c63.html#&gid=1&pid=12 I went in several wrong directions before I achieved success.

I thought I would be eternally happy with the upgraded seats in my Boxster, but they suffered in comparison to the C63 seats.

I hope that the knowledge I gained from the previous projects and the comments from members of this forum will contribute to the success of this endeavor.
