Front Seat Install

Just wanted to give a shout out to 2precise for selling me some amazingly condition front seats all the way from Canada. I will finish the install this weekend and posts some before and after pics.

Seats were a pretty simple to install. I had trouble with one bolt but ended up getting it off. Seat unmounts by using a 10mm socket and removing two bolts up front and two in the back. Everything was plug-n-play. I noticed that the airbag light came on after installing the fully functional seats. I will have to remove the old motors from my original seats and install them on my new seats. The new seats were a little different because they came with the black controls on the sides. My old seats were only controlled by the controls on the door panel. Now I have two sections, the side of the seat and the door panel. Anyways, I'm happy to finally have brand new seats. Looks way better in person. Figured I'd share incase someone does this in the future.

I don't know if the photos but are the seat perforated (little holes) in the center panels? I zoomed in pretty close and I didn't see them. Have they been recovered from the original seller. Not saying they look bad - actually they look pretty perfect - just not factory from my screen.

The seats came out of a CLK55 AMG. The AMG seats are not perforated. They are soooooooo much comfortable. I was shocked at the difference.
