Seat Swap: 04+ to 97-03[*]

[LowlyfeGTP]

what about the seat belts, can the 04+ ones bolt right into the 97-03 models?

My seatbelts in my 99 work with it, but I will most likely swap them out to the 04+ ones eventually. I remember at least one member mentioning they had done this. Now I just need to get another set of headrest seatbelt holders again.

can anyone elaborate a little more on how to hook the wiring up a little better, I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to connect everything,

Am i going to be splicing and making my own connections or ....??? pictures would be excellent if possible

Sorry, I didn't see your questions earlier. I don't check this thread very often. I am unable to update the write-up so it has just sat. The CGP one is updated more, but needs to have more.

Don't know if my passenger side heat would be the same for anyone else since I already had an aftermarket heat kit in my old passenger seat. I have bigger things to tear apart before I get back to the interior.

Here is the wiring part of it to this point.

Well the seat switch has been turned around and it works great. I did have to shave/cut off three plastic tabs (guide tabs) that I found to be a non issue. Two of them are on underside of the switch cap (for lack of a better description) and one on the switch body. They are very easy to see when you do try to reassemble the switch, and just by taking a knife to them to slice them off is required.

If you have anything to add or pics it would be very welcome.
