    Leather seats.

    Hey guys, I just had a quick question. Would it be possible to take the heated leather seats out of a newer Grand Marquis, Town Car, ect. and put them in my Grand Marquis, or am i just wasting my time on this. Don't get me wrong the cloth seats are comfy, but i much prefer the nice leather ones. Thanks for your help.

    I would try to find leather interior from that year car, it was an option on some of them... Im not sure if the interior from a new merc would fit, I would be curios to know.

      nothing else, if you can find a set of leather seats out of a car from your timeframe, you can always install warmers yourself. Im going partake in that eventually and they cost like 60 bucks per seat.

        sure. Easier to use 6 way seats since thats what you have currently. I think you'll need to retain your existing seat tracks and slightly modify them to bolt to the new seats. It involves drilling a hole or something, nothing big. The heated seats you'd have to wire in, but thats not a major operation if you're handy with electrical stuff. If you go with 8 way seats, you'll need to add in another switch, and maybe use the later style seat tracks. Those probably won't bolt up to the floor super easy, so you may need to weld in a plate so you can move the bolt holes around.
