Hi.
My current seats are standard part electric cloth.
I have purchased used full electric m-sport leather.
It seems that the wiring for the electrics is totally different. I realise that this has been the subject of other posts but could someone specifically answer the following.
What do i have to do with wiring to get these seats to work. I only purchased full electric rather than part electric because that's the only M-Sport E61 leather I could find at breakers yards. I am not necessarily bothered about the memory butons being able to work.

Thanks in advance.

If you are UK based contact a company called Cartronics in Surrey. They done a retrofit of M5 seats for another forum member, details of which are posted somewhere.
