Anyone change the GLK seats with GL?
We down sized from the GL to a GLK and find the seats aren't very supportive. I was wondering how difficult it would be to change out the seats. I guess I will have to find out about sizes and the like, but the GLK seats are woefully flat.
Any ideas, suggestions, info?

Stop supersizing at Tim Horton's and you'll find the support fine.

sounds like part of down-sizing.

I presume this will be an expensive task. There are only 4 bolts to the seat, but not sure if all the electronics would correspond to the GLK as the GL has more adjustments?

Do you just want to swap the front seats or the back seats as well?
I'm not sure if C Class seats will fit on a GLK, but judging by how GLK and C Class share the same wheel base, maybe you should try the C63 seats, as they are very supportive, loads of side bolstering..
not very comfy tho

OK, I caved in and got rid of the GLK and picked up a 2011 ML. Same seats as the GL and happily a diesel.

Not a bad way to size up.
