Hi, I cannot for the life of me find this anywhere, all I find are Power to Manual or Manual to power seat exchanges.

I have a 98 Audi A4 2.8 that came with the leather heated power seats, would 2000 S4 power seats fit direct bolt in?

Thanks for the help!

 

Yes and no. If I am not mistaken the plugs are going to be different for the plugins under neath the new S4 seat. The seat will slide and bolt into place where your current seat rests with no drama. All you need to be cautious of is possibly having to source a full plug set from a wrecked/donor car. Just make sure your plugs are the same.

 

It should be plug&play, it'll definitely bolt up and in 90% sure the plugs are identical.

 

Thanks for the quick replies guys! The only thing I'm wondering about is if this had the power seats, I've been looking at it today and If I'm not mistaken, the power seats are bolted in by 4 bolts and the Manual ones slide into the guide and bolt in the front? My car has the guides.. BUT the back seats are leather and there is the heated seat option on the dash. Some back story, I bought the car recently within the last 2 months and the car came with some aftermarket sh**ty bucket seats(slaps face) and I am trying to get back to the comfortable seating... also... the current seats dont slide up far enough so my gf can't reach the pedals.. BAHAHAHAHAHA lol

Thanks again!

 

Mistaken. On my dearly departed 96, and on my current 99.5, the power seats slide into the rails on the back, and are then anchored in front by two torx bolts. After you finally get them in, you then screw in a couple of trim pieces that stop the travel in the back end of the rail.

So when you use the power to move the seat up and back, it is either pushing or pulling on those two torx bolts in the front while the back slides back and forth in the rails.

And that's a problem?

 

lmao! thanks dude. picking up some seats tomorrow! woot woot!

 

Oh but the way mtroxel, you were right about the key not having to be in to move the seats. I think it's kinda silly, but oh well. Sorry for hijack, OP!
