Hi guys

I changed my standard seats to M5 fully electric seats, but i dont know how to make them work. The new seats have all the functions.
I have the following error messages on my screen:
Drivers airbag, passenger airbag, restraint systems etc.
Does anyone know how to connect them properly?

Regards

Hi,

Did you get those seats working?

Would it be possible to share the information to others as well? At least I?m interested to hear how did you solve the problmes. i have changed my seats to M5 seats but the width control of the front seats backrest is not working in my case.

Best regards,
- Tommi

I have the following problem. My car had no heating wiring from the factory, but the new seats i bought they have. For this reason i bought the middle console module as showing in the attachment. No my question is how can i integrate it to my car and make it work?

i also provide a few pictures of my M5 Seats. I just put them in the car and looks great

That's bad news, do you know the way to integrate the heating switches? I don't, but I think it is possible with little research at WDS

Is your car built before or after 09/05?

Nice interior BTW
