it sound like the whole problem rests in having an electric seat, that’s what all the dealers seem to be telling me

I am wondering what you ordered the second time. Do you have that link?

At the end of the day you may want these...

Did you struggle to get your new base seat cover on? I purchased mine from Lseat and they seem to be doing better now that they’ve had a couple hours to stretch, but they keep wanting to pop off….

No idea on electric seats interchangeability on 95 and 96. They are completely different compared to manual seats and Ive never seen an electric seat 94/95 in person.
the electric seats are nifty… but honestly, just wishing i had the manual seats at this point ha. The electric seat frame is heavy and I didn’t buy the D1 because of its electronics anyways haha
