Default Seat Compatability between 850T Wagon and Sedan

I have an 850T sedan with heated, power, sips seats

Found a donor car with heated, power, sips seats that are supposedly in great condition, no broken cables, etc

My seats, the leather is 'ok', but one of the cables is broken and the heater doesn't work (lights up, no heat)... So I'm thinking of swapping the two front seats for $200...

Sounds like an okay deal, but really just paying for new leather because cable repair is easy, heating element I have not looked into yet.

Should be fine, right? Same connectors? Both years are 95... I believe (I know mine is 95)

Front seats should be a easy swap. No differences up front.

Swell. Just make sure the power is off. Anyone know if it's just 4 or so bolts (standard metric sizes?) holding those in? No tricks? No seat belt nightmares? My 850t has spent more time in the shop than I've owned it (PNP getting put in, and inspection). hehe

There is 4 14MM screws holding them in.
You will also have to remove a 13MM screw for the seatbelt.

ALSO IMPORTANT:Once you remove the seat switch panel install the little red piece that is on the back of the cover between the round thing and the metal bracket on the front side of the seat. That is to prevent the air bag in the seat from deploying. Also don't drop the seat!!
