Okay, I had my coupe in for service a while back and noticed the sedan loaner has power recline....do any coupes have power recline? if so, has anyone considered or done a swap, can it be done? I wouldn't swap for the sedan seats because they are a little different in style... just curious...

 

The '05's have power recline.

I bet a replacement seat would be really expensive.

 

so only the 05s, or do some 03-04s have it too? expensive yes...but I am in body repair and have many salvage yard connections....might not be that bad with my old ones as trade....just wondering if the wiring harnesses will work in an 03....

 

Only 05's have power recline(8 way power seats). 03-04's only have manual recline(6 way power seats).

 

I really wish mine had this
The manual lever recline is either too forward for me or too far back; I want it right in between

 

Hey Mike,
When are you gonna show off your new G!? I'm still obsessed with the look of 'em. test drove a red 04 automatic today.
PM me if possible or email ronline55atyahoo.com

whats up Ron?...come by work anytime to check it out, drive it, whatever....I sent a PM to you on A-zine...you have to enable PM capabilities here in the user CP....see ya..

edit: I forgot you also have to make 5 posts before PM privelages.

 

need to know if harness are the same, will 05 seats plug-n-play?...anyone??

 

IMO, I think the power recline and power telescope/tilt are a waste (I have an '05). It takes forever and just adds unnecessary weight and complexity to the vehicle. On top of that, the seat doesn't recline all the way back (not sure if the manual recline seats do or don't).

 

Yes they lay pretty well all the way down.
