Hi. I know this would have been discussed but I just want to be clear what I need if anyone can help with part numbers needed and advice
I have a 2011 RS5 with standard fully electric memory seats.
I have purchased a set of RS5 wingback seats and obviously they are different.
What do I need to do the swop. I have read
seat position sensors. Where do they go and part numbers
Airbag resistors once again part number and location.
I presume I will need 2 pairs one for each side.
Also will I need vag machine to cancel anything?
Thanks chaps.
Below is a nice of my beast.

Are the RS5 seats memory also, there are 2 types, one non & other with.

Airbags should work fine, but depends on connectors if they were from your shape or newer.

They may need cp removal if memory seats.

Sensors are built into seats, not seperate.
 
Not sure on what year car they have come from. The memory switch is on the door not seats.

Yes I'm aware where the switch is, but that's irrelevant, seats have to be memory type if you want to use memory.
 
Ah miss understood. The new seats are not memory also has more manual features. Moving seat back and forth, tipping seat forward and back also forward tip to allow rear passengers inside.
Not bothered about memory seat control just want to fit wing backs without faults

Just had message from seller and the seats came from a 2011 rs5 so same year as mine if that’s makes a difference.

So seats are fitted Now have 2 faults as expected.
Air bag light
Seat position sensors.
I presume the airbags can be sorted by resistors. Anyone know what size or can it be coded out.
Position sensors. Once again can these be coded out I have the ones from my original seats if needed.
