Default Converting sports seats to fully electric

Can 4-way electric sport seats (high bolster) be easily converted to 8-way? I've never seen seats stripped down to bare frame. Is it doable and fairly easy?

No, 8 way requires different frame and rails.

yes, I'm bringing the car fully back to it's former glory... hopefully... it will take some time. and I have an original seats, I do even have the original fabric to recover them. thanks for your offer anyway. I'm thinking about replacing seats in my other car.

that's what I thought but the question is having a both seats - 4-way sport and 8-way electric - is it possible to combine parts together and build 8-way electric sports seat with no great effort or I'm trying to be too smart here?
