Hi Guy's,
I've been a while away from the forum having sold my B7 A4 nearly 3 years ago (missed it terribly) but the good news is I collected my 2008 B8 Avant last weekend!
It's an SE spec with non electric cloth interior (but I got it at a good price) and the first thing I've done is purchased a full leather interior for it. Seats, door cards, arm rest, rear arch liners....absolutely all the bits that are leather.
My question is this...
Has anyone retrofitted a leather interior with electric front seats to a cloth non electric seat interior B8? and if so is it straight forward or do I need a diagnostic tool to "tell the car" anything? Occupancy sensors in seats? Wiring loom to power seats? etc.
Over to you experts.
Cheers in advance.
