Default sc430 seats in a GS

Just wondering if anyone tried putting SC430 seats in a GS before?
I'm getting them for a good price....

I pretty sure the seller will let me test fit them before purchasing them....I worried about powering them but I'm pretty good with 12volt electronics...

NOoooooooo Ravie lol... Just get your existing seats reskinned with new leather texture. Contact CL vendor leatherseats.com Perhaps they will have a variety of patterns available for the 2nd gen GS.

For how much if you dont mind me asking? I wonder if the pads and what not could be swapped out? I just re-skinned my seats so I guess something like this MIGHT be possible, but again its just an idea. Any one know SC and GS seats well?

might be a good idea to do the swap. i actually don't like the fact that there isn't a lot of support under my thighs- i like the BMW seats that have the seat bottom extension to provide more support.
