Driver Seat Module Replacement?

Took our 2013 GL550 in to the local dealership service to diagnose the intermittent operation of the driver seat controls and heating/cooling. As suspected, the dealer states the seat control module needs replacement and they found some harness pins melted apparently. Quoted cost was $1000 plus tax to repair.

Ive found the control module online for about $120. Haven't looked at the harness yet to see how "melted" the pins are. Has anyone replaced a seat control module before? Do I need to actually pull out the seat? Is there any special programming that needs to be done?

Anyone know if the module will need to be programmed or is it simply plug and play?
