Has anyone upgraded 2016 E350 Sport seats
I am considering upgrading my seats using 2013 E63 AMG seats (front and rear). These leather AMG seats are dynamic, cooled, and heated, My current ones are only heated so there may not be correct wiring. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of conversion? Also, is there a massaging version which I would find to be more useful?

I agree with KEY08. Replacing seats (today) sounds simple until you consider the full set of controls that make them work... signals originating from multiple places in the car spell MONEY, especially in a MB.
I replaced front seats in a 77 Honda Accord once. Of course, there wasn't an electrical connection or a wire anywhere in sight.

Third-ed the above two posters. This is not a simple thing. Even trying to get the cooling to work would be bad enough, the dynamic stuff would be the stuff of horror movies.

Not just the programming needed, air lines, holding tank, compressor carpeting and interior parts to run air lines need to come out, etc. I believe there was a thread about a guy in Asia somewhere who did this.
I believe he ended up settling for at least one or more unworking features
