E350 seats in a GLK?
Do any of our resident techies here know if E350 seats will bolt into a GLK?
I love my GLK, but have to admit that the seats in my wife's E350 Premium are much, much better.
My GLK was the Premium package with memory seats (MB Tex if that matters).
Will the front seats from a comparably equipped E350 bolt in?
Will the adjustment and seat memory work?
Often, the seats between sedan and SUV versions of the same chassis are the exact same seat, mounted on a riser to get the higher seating position.
I will be keeping this GLK for a very, very long time. I would happily spring for junkyard seats from a wrecked 350 and put them in.

Possibly the "C" class seats would swap as the vehicles share platforms but not certain about the "E" class. Someone with both an "E" & a GLK need to get out a ruler!

Even if they will bolt up, that doesn't mean the seat electronics are compatible.... First things first, I'll try to figure out fitment than advise further.

If something like that works out it would be nice to get some ventilated E-Class seats to install while you're at it.
I have a funny feeling ventilated seats will be offered on the 2015 GLK for the U.S. market (and then I'll be quite unhappy :-(

I'll be in the market for a 2015 GLK to trade in my 2013. I'm hoping for ventilated seats and surround view camera. The surround view camera is available in Germany on most models, but in the US, i'ts only available on the GL. I don't understand that reasoning, since you can get a surround view camera on the Nissan Murrano. Sorry to hijack this thread.
