    Are seats interchangeable?

    Are all coupe seats interchangeable? Is the wiring harness different between heated and non-heated seats?

    They are all interchangeable. You can even install sedan/touring front seats in a coupe.

      Yep, I can confirm George’s statement.

      Interestingly, I removed heated, non-bolster adjustable seats and installed seats that were heated and had bolster adjustments. The bolsters worked right away. No coding needed.

        They are interchangeable, but non seat heater cars don't have the seat heater buttons or wires running to the seats to activate the seat heater pads.

          Coupe (excluding convertible) are interchangeable. As stated the harness is slightly different for the heated seats for the heated button console and (in some cases) wires for heating. The seat connectors are the same but will have some pins left (empty) on manual and non-heated vs a car that came with them from factory. You’d need to add these wires. If you’re buying heated seats from a donor car and you don’t have them now you optimally would want to grab that for the best, easiset and complete factory appearance swap.

            Thanks for the responses. This is good news. I’m not actually trying to add heated seats. Just looking for used seats, most of them are heated and I wasn’t sure if I could use those. I just have worn leather and used seats are cheaper than having them reupholstered.
