Adjustable Passenger Seat
Looking for a little guidance on my C5 Z06!! Is it possible to convert the passenger seat to electric, just like the drivers side?? My wife is complaining about how her back hurts on long rides. If at all possible I would like to keep the original seat and just change the track underneath. Can one swap out the seat track with a none Z06 without much modification to the body other than electrical? BTW, my wife seldom drives my car, so it is not a ploy to get behind the wheel in the adjustable seat.

You will have to get the electric seat track and the passenger side seat control bezel and switch but everything else will switch over to them. You will also have to cut holes in the side of the seat cover to attach the controls.
You will also have to get a seat wiring harness and connect it to the correct power feed.
Probably would be lower cost to see if some of the forum used parts vendors could supply what you need.

Thanks
Thanks Bill. Sounds like this is not going to be trivial, but not out of the question.
I have requested some info from one of the Salvage companies so we will see what they come up with. They list "for sale" power seat tracks; with or without memory. I assume the memory is for the drivers side.
I also went ahead and posted to the C5 parts forum. I may bug you again.
Thanks, David
