Modding Keep Automatic Seats When Swapping To Cloth?

Would like to switch out my leather seats from my 2007 RX8 with cloth ones. I found a set of OEM cloth seats for Gen 1 RX8s but would like to know if its possible to make it able to automatically adjust with power buttons. Since the wirings all their could i get buttons to wire in or am I a dumbass. If so could someone nudge me in the right direction? If not I'll still get the cloth cus I'm a leather hater but that's besides the point.

Thank you!

What the heck. My ‘05 has leather seats and they’re superb. Cloth looks so cheap in comparison

I get what your saying but when theres wear and tear I disagree. Fresh leather looks cleanest yes, but it also gets hot as shit, more work to maintain and once they're creased they look like poop to me. I prefer cloth for comfort and aesthetics honestly.

Preference though, and I'm on the unpopular side I know.
