Changing seats in a car

OSI · 2009-09-25 10:48:15

Hi All, Just wondering how difficult it would be to change the seats in a car. I would be looking to swap with seats from the same model car so in terms of compatibility I can't see a problem but would there be any issues regarding side airbags etc?

If the model is the same there shouldn't be issues other than the work of getting the seats out/disconnecting electrics/seat belts.
What model/year is it?

Disconnect the battery just in case, remember get your radio code first... Becareful with seats containing side airbags when handling (don't throw on the ground) and you should be ok.
