Power driver seat?

Is it possible to retrofit the power driver seat? Has anyone done this?

i think it would be costly. control units, motors, door panel, switches. probably a costly project.

Exclamation ouch !!

ouch !!

my little Coupe didn't come with power seats.
I kinda like my manual mode seats though... don't usually have passengers, so they pretty much stay put all the time.
My wife's memory power seats are a hoot !
Kinda tripped me out the first time I got in, and things started moving all over the place ! I thought the seats were possessed ! She's on setting #1, I'm on setting #2, but I never get to drive it though. That's OK, my COUPE is off limits too !
Well, gonna log-out for a while to go home and take some pics of the 2004.5 arm-rest !

yeah when i put in my spare key my seat, steering wheel and mirrors move to position 2. i love having the power/memory seats. they were a must for me.

i know all mods are possible, just how much are you willing to spend getting the mods?

im in the same boat as some others, because ill spend the $$$ to get what i want.

Damn yo, that's some insight. I really want to peep your c55 and all the awesome mods that you've done to it. I want to see what happens when money is no object. Would you mind taking a few pictures of it? I want to give you points for being a cash money big pimp.
