Can I replace my cloth heated seats with leather ones?

Potentially a stupid question but alas,

My E90 comes with cloth seats that somehow still have a heated function. If I swap these seats for leather ones is it simple to transfer over the wiring?

I assume the wiring would be the same but is it a simple fix? Anything else I should know?
Thanks.

No cloth seats in the US . People swap between the regular and sport seats .
There is a thread on this in the General Forum if you search for it.

Quite easy. Just takes time to take it apart & back together.

Adding heated function is just adding those elements & plugging it into the car.
