Default 911 Seats in a Boxster

Looking to replace the seats in a 2004 Boxster S. Will 8-way 911 Seats fit in this year model without major modifications?
Thanks

Ya gotta see this vid courtesy of porscheminitech as I was running out of da crack & quaaludes. I had gotten my head so far up my ****, I couldn't see straight and it really is quite simple.

Oh yeah. So easy a CAYVMAN can do it. BTW, it is worth the swap.

Having just done some wiring to add heated seats, I'm not ready to plunge back in. But, this looks like a pretty cool upgrade.

However, I think the video leaves out some major steps in the process. I'm a little confused as to why you would need to change the wiring in the seat. It seems to me that you would need to change the wiring harness and connector that are in the car. When I installed heated seats, from a Carerra in my Boxster, I did not do anything to the seats themselves, I just worked on the car harness.

This: http://www.dennisvogel.com/heatedseats/index.html is a great reference for the heated seat upgrade. I'd like that level of detail for the 8-way seats before I tackled them.
