i have a 2003 2.2 cd with cloth interior i think it has heated seats and a switch on the side that moves the seat up and down is this the same on the leather seats?? there is a guy on gumtree selling a leather electric interior he doesnt know what year it is tho lol. will i run into problems switching them???

If they're from a facelift CD or CDX, then straight swap, just disconnect the battery first, wait 30 mins, and renew seat bolts etc,etc. :y

If they're from an Elite, then you'll need different bolts (longer), and possibly a second live feed to the seats :-/, depends on wiring built into the car. being a late one you might get lucky with the loom, in which case as above (with longer bolts). :y

HTH,

Al. :y

Mr Al Above is spot on, long as they're not from an elite/prefacelift model, it should be a pretty simple swap!

Just be aware, early Omega seats didn't have the side airbag in the seats ;)

Also, PFL cars had mechanical pre-tensioners which MUST be locked before removing from the car with the red locking tab.

These will be for cars without side airbags also so beware!

its an mv6

facelift 01 - 02 mv6 he thinks lol

nice £100 seats headrests and door cards

just on the same topic....

I just bought a full leather interior from a mini Fl, for my Pre FL.

What fitting issues will i have to deal with in the swap.

My Pre FL is a select model....only has electric height adjustment.

LOL i went to buy them earlier the seats  were from a 98' and the door cards were from a 02 wtf. so i'll sit on my cloth ones for a while yet
