Yes, they fit, and ttrank has em, but I think there was some small problem with the wiring. Basically, it's not plug-n-play, you need some adapter or something.

Hi, I got your PM's but I thought I would post here instead in case others are looking for this information too.

Yes I have them, they are out of twinsnails car. He had Recaros now.

The bolt holes line up but the ones I got needed some rewiring because the plugs were not the same. I had to cut the plugs off my sedan seats and change around some wiring. The coupe seats I got had more wires because the control module for them is on the seat and on my sedan it is somewhere else. There is another sedan who has them and he did not have to do any rewiring. I guess he got lucky.

The other thing is that the coupe seats sit a little lower. The driver is ok but the passenger needed to be spaced up a little. My GF (5'2") could not even see the bulge in my stillen hood. I'm 5'11" and it was too low for me to be comfortable. After I spaced it up it is still a little lower than the old ones but works fine.

After seeing ttranks most excellent sedan, I did them to. I have a 2004 sedan and I put in coupe seats from a 2003. the drivers seat was plug and play no wiring needed but the passanger seat required rewiring but only to get power to the seat motor. the airbag and seat heater plugged right in.

LOL, that was good, I set myself up for that...

I have no idea on the M seats. The fan would be awesome here in Phoenix.

Yeah I'm in Palm Springs area and the fan would be great in 120 weather. I thought about paying a midget prostitute, but that wouldn't be very PC.

Hmmmmmm I wonder how much that kit costs. I would be interested. I don't care about the heated part since they already have heaters.
