I'll do this trade, pm me. I have the tan tesla performance seats. I think the seats should just slide in the same way correct?

I might be interested in this as well, I have the tan leather and alcantara with grey piping performance seats but I usually like the bolsters on the Next Gen seats better. Do you know if all the electronics match up between the seats such as seat heaters, etc? Feel free to PM me as well.
How is it causing you pain? I've never sat long term in the Next Gen before but they look very comfy.
I think the next gen are quite a bit more comfy for really short trips(and would be nicer for racing) but I did find that after 2+ hrs they were worse than the classic performance seats. I seemed to have some (very minor) hip / lower back pain that went away pretty quick.
not sure about the electrics for the swap either? I think @wk057 did a seat swap a while back on the classic 'yellow' P90 with the AP1 retrofit

I see, my p85d came with old performance seat and I've been wanting to swap it out but I am in the Bay Area. Where are you located? I don't think it's hard to find someone to swap out the seat.
I have the same problem. I am 6'3 with wide shoulders and I can never get comfortable with my next gen seats. For that reason I never take the Tesla on long drives. Its torture when I sit over 2 hours. However, I have a Subaru Impreza which I can drive for 8 hours with no back pain

I have black with red piping performance seats (and Alcantara inserts) and I prefer the next gen seats. I'm in SoCal if interested.

I'm not positive but I thought that someone mentioned that you have to have the car reprogrammed to know what seat/airbag setup is in the car. (And I don't know how willing Tesla is to do that.)
