Trade seats?

Just traded in our 2016 75 S for a 2020 LR. Loving the much better range and the power lift-gate, not liking the cruise control or the new seats. On that note, 2 questions -
1. Is it possible to swap out the "Tesla Premium" sets for the Gen 3 2015-2016 seats?
2. Anybody in the DC/NOVA area looking to trade up seats?

Possible, yes. Will the swap require Tesla Service to change the configuration of your car? Don't know. If you have said seat available, try it. Worst that would happen is that you will have to swap the seat back.

Tesla service has said that front seats might be able to be swapped between premium and next gen. Rear bench definitely can be.

That's my fear, I imagine there's probably a different interface between the (alleged) Recaro seats and the in-house Tesla designed seats. Still searching for some concrete proof that it's possible but haven't found anything yet.
