retrofit P1 seats? (heated and all power)
How much would it cost to retrofit the seats from P1? Seat costs aside.
The costs I'm looking for are
- heated seat center console control ($50-70ish)
- Door trim (?)
- additional wiring to door?
I'm wondering because I if and when I do replace my seats (that will eventually show signs of wear and tear) I might go with retrofitting the P1 seats just for kicks. Might even do the steering wheel as well to match.
since thats been brought up
- steering wheel motor (?)

Don't you need a new 'door controller' that can handle the memory seat features? I know you needed it in the W203, not sure about W204. I really don't think that this is a viable upgrade to do after the fact unless you are getting the parts at a VERY reasonable price (junk yard or such?)

the real question you must ask, is whether non-p1 equipped vehicles have the appropriate wiring harness, or if you need a new one to support the heated seats. To be honest, I don't know. Perhaps your local dealer wil, pose the question (pretending as if you wanted them to do the wrok, asking what is needed and how much approx) and then DIY! lol.
You would need only 1 memory door trim and controller, the center dash controller and then of course, the heated seats.
