That’s a great question. I was wondering about that recently
the passenger seat, as is, is not really comfortable.

I’m looking forward to seeing what comes back to you on this request

I just did a quick search and it appears as though they’re both the same
I located the info on this thread
drop this into the search and the thread will pop up.

slk 230/320 seats better, worse, the same?

I'm doing the bottom rail swap for the height adjustment. I'll be using my current seat and putting the new seat rail with 3 motors from MB slk to give me the electric height adjustment. I don't know if the MB are more comfortable but i would think they're the same

The R170 8 way power passenger seat track is the same part # for SLK 230 & 320 (A1709102436) and I have SLK 320 seat track in my SRT6 so yes it will fit.

Edit: Peter I see you are quicker at the draw than me ;{

How much do the electric seats in the Crossfire weigh? Did the base cars come with normal manual seats?

About fitting I was reading that even R171 seats can be used. (?)
