I believe the front seats will fit. The middle and third row fit may be an issue because of the added length of the ESV. I seem to recall from discussions on the TahoeYukonForum.com that ESV seat mounting hardware won't fit in a short wheelbase model. Not sure about what might be needed for wiring the cupholders.
Upfit 2006 Escalade with ESV Platinum features?
Hi, I have a 2006 short wheelbase escalade, I was wondering what the logistics are of upfitting with the ventilated seats and climate controlled cupholders that came on the ESV platinum? Any insight is helpful, thank you.

The second and 3rd row i’m not much worried about, however, how does the ventilated seat work? Is it a standalone fan system, or is it a duct coming from the A/C?I believe the front seats will fit.

Heated seats were available as an option on o6 base Escalade. It works with a heating element that is added to the seat cushions. I am unfamiliar with the cooled seats function. It was available only on ESV Platinum models in 06.The second and 3rd row i’m not much worried about, however, how does the ventilated seat work?

Doubtful if OP is even still around. Thanks for reply but at this point, anyone thinking about "upgrading a standard Eskie" to a Platinum, just purchase a Platinum. Just my opinion.
I thought the short base Escalade was offered only in 'Base 2wd' and 'Base 4wd' "trim" options
