Title: changing seats and trim
Post by: boothy on 26 April 2009, 13:31:28

Hi Everyone, Firstly I dont have an omega but my friend has just bought one and he cannot use a computer so I am really a surrogate owner.
The thing is, He has bought a 2001 v6 diesel automatic CDX and he doesn't like the fabric heated manual seats. He wants to buy electric leather heated memory seats. The leather seats are from an 'elite' The question is would this work and is the wiring already in for the electrics.
He would also like to change the door panels and the centre console.

Any comments or pointers would be appreciated, as he seems mad on buying the new seats without really knowing ??

Thanks  people and I am sure I will be on here on a regular basis as he is a little crazy !!!

Make sure the leather seats have the airbags fitted to them! You can't skimp on safety :y Also the leather would be memory seats which weren't fitted to the CDX models.

Thanks welung, would the seats fit though and is it possible to get the electrics working without the memory?

The seat will fit fine :y They'll work as the CDX seats do now.

The problem with that is that the seats he has now are manual!!

They should still have electric height adjustment though.
