Hello,

I am seriously considering buying an Omega saloon from 2001.
There is 1 problem with the car the interior has had a leaking battery on it, and is far from ok.

A friend of me has a nice Cream leather interior from a 1998 omega Saloon. My big question is!  Will this fit?

To clarify the one I want to buy is new type the 1998 interior if from older type

Hoping to hear from you soon.

I do not no about facelift interiors except that the door cards are very different.
I have put seats from a 99 into a 96 and I had to change the seat bases/runners to keep the seat belt tensioners ok.

It is easy to change the seat bases just 4 bolts but make sure the seat is in the highest setting before removing it.

HTH

Simple answer.
It WON'T fit

Simple answer.
It WON'T fit

Just out of interest, why will it not fit ?

[mathewst]

From topics I read on the forum seats are a little different shape, doorcards are completely different. Not sure about wiring in the seats but this also can be a problem.
Maybe I'm wrong but pretty sure it isn't a straight swap

Mr Marthewst is correct.

1) Door cards are a totatly different design (window buttons are on them for a start)

2) Seat runners are different design.

3) It won't look right, i have seen mini-facelift leather in facelift and it does not 'look' quite right....

Even though its a 1998 plate, is it a 98 model year? Is it a mini-facelift with side airbags? If not, then i would not even contemplate swapping the seats

[calibrafan]

interior has side airbags, but it still sounds like a lot of hastle for me LOL

Door cards, a LOT of work would be needed. Seats not plug and play, but can be done.

Depends how much you want to do

Seats will fit but door cards won't.

I'm going to put mini facelift leather in my facelift diesel

I've got front and rear seats from a facelift saloon if you're interested. Not leather though.
Pm for more details.
