Hey there


I am in the process of installing those myself except from a E 211 class car since I have a sedan. I already got everything wired up and swiches installed with wire to the seats. Definitly doable if you can find the seats.

yeah i saw your set up when you posted pics of the parktronic. those switches for the heated/ventilated seats are cool. $$ will be a factor for this mod, but when theres a will, theres a way and one way or another im going to get this done!!

The fully optioned switch row with harness will run you about 250 dollars. The seats are going to be expensive. If you just replace the pads themselves with new leather covers and horsehair padding, it may be cheaper. I priced the drivers side seat pad. I am talking about the one that is foam. THe one with vented feature and multicontour feature was at 280 dollars. The foam does not come with the air bags eiuther.

the wire harness for the power seats includes the part for the steering wheel adjustment but retrofitting a power adjustable steering is out of the question. THere are too many small parts involved and gears, etc... I am sure cost would be a factor as well. 01 has steering wheel adjustment control on door, 02 onwards has it on the steering column.

Nope as Sunman said it is on the column now. It is a stall that controls the movement in and out and up and down. The C1 package also lets you program the steering wheel and seat to move up for the wheel and back for the seat to exit the car easier. Also when you put your key in the seat moves back to the last position it was in when you last used the key, they steering then returns for you to the appropriate place as well. These setting can be changed via the steering wheel buttons and the MFD.

yes the convienence settings are set thru the MFD for steering column only or steering column/seat, or off. seat adjustment thru the door controls and wheel adjustment thru the stalk on the wheel.
