they can't be, the fronts are on/off where as the rears are momentary push on ie they only switch on when pressed & open again when you release them. The rear seats work via relays.

Yes. click on .... click off
back are only closed/on while you're pressing them as there's a relay between the switch & seat. The fronts don't have a relay. (meaning your wife & daughter can will leave them on every single time they use them :-X)

That the rear switches are momentary push?
The fact that you can hear a relay click when you press the switch and when you turn the ignition off, the rear seats turn off too suggest that they are.  :y
