only some gls spec cars (with winter pack) have the heated seat wiring, none of them have the wiring to run memory seats, you would need to modify the electric seat (up and down) feed for the cd spec seats, to allow you to use memory functions.

also did you get the seat bolts with the elite seats? as they are longer than the standard ones.

got your work cut out im afraid  :-/

before you commit to buying the leather, look at the switch loaction for the heated seats (center console) and see if there are female pins visible? if the holes are just empty, then there is no heated seat wiring, and wont be any leccy seat feed usable to make the adaptor for memory seats.

when i did mine i got one of the breakers on here to remove the plugs with about 8 inches of loom from the back of the switchs you need the two end ones (obviously) depending on what other switches you have will depend on the amount of rewiring you need to do
you can join into the loom that is there for the switch 0v, illumination and the ign 12v from cig lighter (if you look at fuse listings no 14) this is for heated seats too
you then need to run One wire from the switch to the seat to the heat pad (i put an inline fuse in the wire to be sure) the 0v is already there from the electric seat adjust
the seats in my 1995 gls

you can have the memory funtion of the seats only (not mirrors) by connecting to the seat connector you need the plug with the drivers seat

just use the wires that are already there just splice in the extra wires
