There is a nice 1991 (W126) 560 SEL seat set at a local salvage yard. The rear seats have the reclining seats. My question is; once the rear seats are removed from the electric frame are they a drop in? another words does the bottom seat have the two holes underneath that snap into the two metal prongs like on my 1984 300 SD? Or would I have to remove the leather seat cover and put it on my 1984 seat base? Same question for the rear seat back.;once removed from the electric frame; does it have the (3) 10mm screw holes at the sides and middle, and the 3 tabs at the top that slide into the slots near the hat rack? Does anyone have any underside pics of a removed SEL recling rear seat? Another thing, it is missing the headrest, I wonder if my spare 1984 front seat headrest would fit into the rear seat headrest holes?

The front seats have the electric headrest, my 1984 does not. Can my 1984 headrest fit into the 1991 front seat headrest holes? I know I would have to play around with the male electric pin plugs under the seat to match my 1984 female plugs. but I hope I would not have to put the front seat bases on my 1984 front seat frames.

I really want these seats and the price is right, but I want to know potential problems and what will work before I rent a van and spend the time removing from the salvage yard.

Thanks for the help on this!
