That would be nice! You "might" be able to use your existing rails for the new sv8 seats but don't quote me on it.

As soon as you change how the seat is mounted, diff bolt hols and such it needs to be approved by an engineer. If you use the earlier seat rails and bolt on the newer seats you will get around this issue.

umz i just wanted them fitted full stop, he said you need an engineering degree or something and blah blah, so i have had a look at doing it myself with this guide, using the rail-swapping methods for the front seats (as i dont care for electrics too much) and yeah, my rails decided the last two allen key bolts wouldnt come out!, wound up stripping the thread! WOHOO!!! **** MY LIFE! lol.
