Title: Elite seats/mv6 seats
Post by: blackviper90210 on 21 May 2011, 08:24:28

Hi all,
I know that it is highly recommended to stick to the same era for swapping the seats around, but I do like the mv6 sportier seats compared to my leather armchairs.

Question is, being an Elite with memory seats etc do the mv6 seats have the same electrics?
ie memory/electric movement? I'm not fussed over the heated side of things.
If I can swap, anybody fancy a change for black leather estate seats?  ;)

TIA  :y

MV6 seats are Recaro design and only have electric up and down function, no electric memory at all, would be cool if they could though, unless someone has retrofitted the mechanism to an MV6 seat?

They are very different I'm told. I had a thought of grafting the mv6 front seats on to elite frames with motors and all. But it's not straightforward.

If I had nothing else needing doing on the car I would look into it further as I like the idea too.  :y
