Can you make power / heated vaders work in a manual/non-heated car?

If you want memory, you need memory modules (if e36 had memory seats?)

Yes and yes, but it requires a lot of wiring for the heated seats.

k fuck heated feature it's a summer car anyway... are the power seats hard to wire up? I've seen many cars (not bimmers though) that look like they have a harness from the factory for heated/power seats, even without power seats as an option.

I can't answer that for sure. However, as far as I know, it just needs power. That's it. As long as the airbag sensor connections are the same then run it power/ground and you should be good.

If you really want to be sure, head over to bimmerforums.com. Lots of people do Vader swaps and should have some advice for you.

^ Yup. Get some nice Molex connectors though, no hardwiring! And no damn t-taps either :)
