Thumbs up Swapping seats from XK8 to XKR?

Does anyone know if its a smooth fit to transfer XK8 (rounded non adjusting headrest) seats into an XKR model?

I have a 2001 XKR and they are stock with the square headrests, which I don't like. I would like to put the solid one piece sporty looking seats that are usually standard in XK8s

Starting in 2001, XKRs have a different upholstery pattern than XK8s.

However, all XKs in 2001 have Separate Headrests. Another change from 2000 to 2001 is separate Front and Rear Up-Down adjustments for the Seat Bottom.

The Earlier Seats might Bolt in, but there could be differences in the Electrical Connections.

I also like the One Piece Seat that is that is used in all 1997-2000 XKs.

Another variation is that some seats are Heated and some Not.
