Seats Interchangeable S70 1999

I wanted to know if I can interchange the seats from a 2000 V70R Wagon into my 99 s70? I am sure the front seats will, but am wondering if the back may be a problem.
Thanks,
Joe

    Should bolt right in. When you make the switch you will need to remove the powered seat and disconnect the seat belt. You'll need a large torx socket..very large and I forgot the size. Disconnect the battery before you start....otherwise you may trip the srs system, (like i did)which is connected to the seatbelt, and that will require a trip to the dealer to reset it. And if they concerned that you may not have done things right....they will unbolt a few things and look...then charge you $75. Doesn't matter if you leave the ignition off....the seat stays powered. So didconnect the battery. Then the system never knows you were fooling around.

      After disconnecting the battery, wait at least 15 minutes. This is very important. If you don't wait, the system can still be tripped as something in the system stores a charge for a few minutes even if the battery is not giving it any...guess this is a safety feature to deploy the airbag in case of a front-ender that takes the battery out a split second before it is suppose to go. Good luck and let us know how those seats fit!
