I want to do the same thing with my interior. My driver seat is ripped a bit and I want to switch to black leather to match my dash. I just want to make sure the power connector works in my A4.

depeneds on it the previous seats are power or not and if they are you will have no problem. if your switiching your power seat to the manual seat, you will need to cut out the bracket from the manual seat and weld it in place in your car.

Hello,

I also have the same problem. I was wondering if Audi's A6 (1998 +) seats would fit to Audi b5 A4 (1996)? Thanks.

You might be able to do that, but the wiring could be a pain. Check out Jacobs Electronics - I know a few years ago they sold aftermarket seat heaters for around $80/seat. They gave you a cushion pad and a backrest pad, plus a switch with off, low, and high heat settings. They're a universal application, so they might be a little bit smaller than OEM warmers, which would be good because the Milano is not a wide seat.
