Swapping Hatchback Sport Seats for Si Seats?

[lunabar825]

So everyone, with the help of @BeefyBuns and his old seats. He was able to switch CTR seats into his SI coupe and I was able to switch SI coupe seats into my Sport hatch. He pointed out from his research and from codes that came up after his swap, the airbag light was due to the seat position sensors not being registered or calibrated to the vehicle after switching seats, he also needed to switch his Si buckles onto his CTR seats. We were both able to avoid any lights by switching out those sensors (and buckles for his CTR seat swap) from your original seats into the new seats. Swapping the driver side position sensors is very straight forward and easy, the passenger side was more of a pita and requires some dissembly of the seat rails.

Airbag harness connector was the same between both seats

Buckle harness and seat position sensors were of course, the same. I swapped them from my old seats.

That's awesome!
THANK YOU for the details and photos!
At least for me, THIS is the info I was looking for.

This info is so helpful I've been looking to change out the seats in my 2021 Sport Hatchback to Si seats. I want to be sure I am reading this right. So as long as you swap the sensors, seat harness and buckles from the sport seats to the Si seats there are no airbag or SRS lights?

Thank you in advance

Just completed the seat swap. Make sure to double check connections for the passanger seat (trust me I was stumped on it for an hour). Blue side towards the front red side in the rear for the passenger position sensors. Also this video was VERY helpful for visuals but sadly is only the driver side. Si seat swap

So I have a sport touring and I picked up an SI seat for dirt cheap. Does anyone know if the power seats have the same sensors as the manual seats?

Love the style of those Si seats. We never got those in EU unfortunately.
