Here is some information from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_W126 Four years after the introduction of the fuel-efficiency "Energy Program," the model range had been reworked completely. In September 1985, again at the IAA in Frankfurt, the reworked model range was reintroduced. Apart from visual changes to the bumpers, side covers and alloys, the changes made to the available collection of engine variants was most visible. Two newly-constructed 6 cylinder engines and new 4.2 and 5.6 litre V8's were added, and other engines were further upgraded. So I think the mechanicals changed but the bodies didn't alter too much. Although if you scroll down from this quote on Wikipedia you'll see a whole list of different chassis numbers...

yes they will interchange.main diffs are the electric front seats but if you have the complete interior shouldn't be an issue.

As David pointed out, you cannot just drop '86+ powered seats on the early wiring harness... been there, done that. The wiring is different.
Just remove your existing motors and bolt them to your new seats. Off you go.

Yes, direct swap. I have an '87 interior in my '85.

Not a problem, I was pretty angry when I had my '87 seats in the car and went to adjust it... I pushed the track backwards and I think the headrest went up.
