Default Msport seat retrofit

Hi all, i am already bored and wanted to do a mod for my car as am off work for the next couple of weeks.. There's local garage near that selling the front m sport seats for the e60 for a very good price so i wondering how hard is to replace them with my standard se seats? My seats come with full electric and memory same as the msport seats.. Would there be any difference in wiring and sockets etc and will it need programming too? Also am not sure if these seats are off an lci as my car is pre lci.

Thanks for your input.

Unfortunately no. I couldn't find any useful info regarding the retrofit so am going to leave it for now. Although if any one find any info it will be useful to let me know for future reference.

someone I met off another forum mentioned he'd retrofitted comfort seats, only thing that needed coding out was the belt tensioners as it's built into the seat on comfort seats. He didn't do a write up about it unfortunately. Comfort seats are the business though, soooooooo comfy, really worth retrofitting
