Manual to electric seats conversion

Cavanta · Aug 13, 2024

Hi all!

I know it is possible to replace the manual seats with electric seats. But does anyone know if it is possible to convert the manual rails/controls to the electric mechanism?

I have a grey interior, but the only seats i can find are black. Would like to convert my grey manual seats to the electric mechanism of possible.

You can remove the black covers from the electric seats and remove the gray covers from your mechanical seats and put them on the electric seats. Electric seat motors cannot be installed on the mechanical seat frame.

It's not just the bases, the recline mechanism is built in- but as above you can swap covers, you will need either a crapload of zipties or hog rings to do so

Thanks for your replies! Will try to get the seats for a lower price then i think! Was it a real pain to redo the seats Innokenti?
