Help with leather seat swap
 
Hi friends,

First of all, no flaming me please, I did a search already and I didn’t find much. I don't know where to post this question and I thought the tech garage was most applicable.

“The Bean” and I are considering a large switch a roo. My red/black leather seats for his chaparral/black seat. Also my deck lid with spoiler for his deck lid without spoiler. I know it is ridiculous, please don’t ask why we didn’t do it in the first place. We have several questions about this process.

Is the seat swap even possible, I am guessing you can just take out the front buckets and maybe swap them, but what about the leather in the back seats? Are they just inserts that can pop out, or is it some complicated mess that is going to make my head tired. Please give me your feedback on what you know or think about this idea.

Also, the deck lids, is that very complicated? I know there is a little wiring involved but has anybody messed with that?

Any advice or info on this would be greatly appreciated. I love you all and please don’t flame me.

shouldn't be a major problem.....
look in the audio section on rear seat removal as many have done it to run wiring and to do rear speaker installs.

Actually the rear seats will probably be the easiest to take out. The front's are just some bolts and the wiring. The hardest part will be the side panels on the front/ rear doors.
PM me with your email and I'll send you the other pic's, too many to post. Here's the rear seats, just push up on the bottom and then 2 bolts for the top part.
