Default Transfering Memory Seats from Donor Car

I've had my car for quite a while now.
It's a S-Type 3.0 2005 model. Due to our driving conditions I needed a bunch of parts to make my car sparkly again.
To my luck I found a guy selling the exact same car, even the year as mine.
He couldn't finish the paperwork as it was RHD and we drive on the other side of the road.
I paid 1000 euros for it and my god the car looks brand new.
I'm taking of a ton of pats from it and that includes the seats, problem is they have memory option which mine does not.

Does anyone have any experience with these seats?
I haven't touched them yet but I'm looking into transferring them to my car.
I have decent electrical knowledge.

Hi!

Just to be certain: You want to put a RHD passenger seat in the LHD drivers position right?

Umm yeah, but I would not flip them I'd put the passanger seat into the drivers side and passanger into drivers.
From a quick glance they look identical?

The only difference is that the donor car has memory seats, the 1,2 and memory buttons are on the window control panel.
I'd like to keep that feature and implant it into mine.

If all the plugs fit then I'll bet it will work . Though you may have to activate
the function via IDS/SDD factory diognostics equipment .

Jaguar opened their first saloon this year in my country, if I were to set all of that up do you reckon they would be willing to help?

Yes I know it's dumb to own a car without official country support, but I had to learn a lot about it in order to keep it running so it was worth it.
