987 seats in a 986

[j.fro]

I've got a buddy who's asked if he can put 987 Cayman seats in his 2001 986. the "options" on both are the same: manual rails, electric back, heated. Are they plug-n-play?
His reason for the change is that the heating element in his driver side is gone. He's tested the switches, and they are good, so he needs a seat with a good heating element.
I thought that Cayman seats had airbags in the side bolsters, so I'm worried that's going to complicate things.
Thoughts??
