07 JCW seats in a 06 MCS convert?

Will 07 JCW front seats fit/work ina 06 MCS Convertible? Im not quite sure when the airbag connectors changed over to a new format?

Can i just bolt in and replace them?

Thanks, in advance!

What do you mean by 07 JCW (there was no factory JCW in 07). Do you mean JCW Recaro seats, or just regular R56 seats?

They are standard R56 seats in lounge leather. I've seen the 2nd-gen-to-1st-gen seat topic discussed before. You'll have to search.

I have R56 JCW seats in my 03 R53. Needed all the seat rails and the plug's needed changing around a bit for the airbags and seat heating.
