Charleston, SC - LOOKING FOR A base model drivers seat for an F15

Anyone near Charleston, SC?

I am looking for a base model, non sport seat for an F15. Any color. (I am willing to dye it)

Currently I have the comfort seats in my M-sport. They are decent enough around town but I cannot stand them on long trips (12+ hours)

Assuming the base model seats are interchangeable with the comfort seats and require no programming, etc. I would like to swap in a base model driver seat for these twice a year road trips.

Please LMK!

Wow comfort seats feel way better IMO, this is first time I see someone wants to downgrade. Also pinouts for seat connectors are different as well as swapping seats can cause airbag light to come on, not sure if its worth all the trouble for you.
Here is the swap seat thread:

I was thinking the same thing, why would anyone want to downgrade?
From my experience, the comfort seats are way nicer. I have done many 1,000 mile+ trips with my X5 that has the comfort seats, and not had any issues with them.

Your seat must be adjusted wrong for the base seat to be more comfortable than the contour seats...
