Im gonna be swapping my standard cloth interior for some full leather interior I hunted down off a 2008 R32 and my mechanic mentioned make sure you disconnect your battery an hr before you take your existing seats out or my air bags would go off?! Like don't think he was pulling my leg but wanted to ask you guys the question before I crack on as I'm sure someone's done this a few times and I'd rather know first! & is there any way of using the heated seats on my new interior even if I didn't have heated seats before? I've can I buy something or a cable or something to adapt this to work?! Any advice much appreciated
-
before messing around with any of the airbag stuff i always disconnect battery and leave for about 10 mins, just what i prefer to do, other people don't do this and still manage to work on the seats or wheel no problem, so really its down to how lucky you feel

It wont necessary go off but i would d/c

Okay no worries, I think I'll definitely disconnect battery for half hour before I do it! & does anyone know what you'd need to use the heated seats when I don't currently have this, so what would I need in terms of cables etc so I can get them? Or is it really gonna be too much work to be worth it?
