    850 interior swap, electric seats for manual

    Im looking to swap the full interior on my 95 854. Currently has beige heated manual seats. Looking at putting black, heated and electric seats in it from a 96 car. Before i start ripping seats out and removing carpets, does anyone know if the looms for electrically adjusted seats are hard wired on all lesser models making it an easy plug in change??
