Has anyone tried retrofitting 924S or 944 electrical goodies such as the electric roof or electric seats?

I ask because my local yard has 2 in at the moment and I would love to upgrade my 924 if its not a major hassle.

With all the problems that people have with the power sunroof, why would you want to add those types of problems to your car. Besides, the power sunroof parts are HEAVY.

You could add the power seats fairly easily, but once again, THEY ARE HEAVY. And how often do you really readjust the seat once you get it where you want it?

It's not like the poor 2.0L engine has a lot of extra hp waiting to haul the extra weight around.

The big advantage of the electric seats is that they can be lowered lower than the stock seats. Gives you more room below the steering wheel (for those of us who need it).
