Just a caution re: finding replacement seats in a salvage yard: These are very high quality seats, but they aren't long-lived. The seats in our '08 Allure were pretty badly sacked (seat cushions badly compressed) and the electro-massage units and wiring were in bad shape at 78,000 miles. After pricing replacements at Villa (well North of $3500/seat) we decided to have them re-upholstered.
Stan's Auto Upholstery in Eugene did them for us - renewed the cushions in seats and backs, removed the massage units, and replaced the covers where they were worn, and the total price was about a third of what new seats would have cost. They replaced the foam with better material than the originals had in them, and sculpted the seat-backs to our exact desires for lumbar support. We stayed in the coach in their parking area, with power from their shop, while they did the work.
We are VERY happy with the results. You might want to try this route...
