FL MV6 Seats can fit any FL, MFL, PFL.

MFL MV6 Seats should only be fitted to MFL, PFL.

Very early Recaro Badged Sport seats should only be fitted to PFL

Wiring of above may differ.

Possibly, if you tell them, but Im guessing they might struggle pulling a fast one on you in case of an Accident, if the Bags have been deactivated or removed / blanked off and where fitted to a car that never had them in the first place.

Fitting non airbag seats in airbag seated car, needs tech 2 to turn off airbag warning light. ;)

Ooo! Are your Cdx leathers a) heated b) from an estate c) have a folding passenger seat?


If so I'll definitely buy em off you!  :)

Sad times! I suspect that particular combo of attributes is about as common as some rocking horse poop with hens teeth embedded in it.

Fronts are the same regardless of body shape, model year notwithstanding ;)

So saloon facelift CDX seats will fit ANY facelift Omega. '02 CDX I have just sold had both leather and fold flat passenger seat...

Your problem will be finding a half decent servicable estate seat to match the leather colour/pattern of the front seats... Facelift have three finishes in black/charcoal...
'00-'01 smooth black
'02 smooth charcoal
'03 patterned charcoal

Smooth or patterned applies to grey and cream as well but there shades don't change ;)

Nope. The pretensioners are wrong.

Also, if leather, the heaters won't work in a MFL or PFL.
