What seats bolt into w463?

Is there any other model truck Mercedes makes that the seats are somewhat interchangeable? Trying to find a salved G to pull the interior seems to be an impossible task. So anyone fired ML or some other model seats in a G?

In general, other similar MY seats tend to fit, as in they can bolt to the power rails. I've seen CLS and C class seats bolt up, but the motors and electronics are all different, so will require custom work there.

The second question is if the seats fit. In general, they do fit, but some adjustments, positions, etc may not be correct as the G ergonomics are quite different than the rest of the MB lineup.

Scheel-mann also makes bolt in seats for the G. Super comfortable (supposedly) but you may lose some of the power functions, depending on the model you choose.

There are a few people who have written detailed posts on how they did it.

You should grab some popcorn and read through this thread:

I put C63 seats into my G500 that were direct bolt up, just had to swap over the seat control module and change the connectors for the seat motors.

Not taking the project on until Xmas time, but starting to get parts. Going to just get 2 more front seats for the rear, and build a center console.

I have a 2009 g55 and all the bladders are dead. Would love to rebuild them but need seats in the meantime. Willing to sell them? I’m in Houston as well.
