Is the 97 Max a GLE? I've seen pictures of people selling heated seats from a 97 Maxima GLE so there must have been some factory heated seats.

The SRS style seats from on 99 I30 use a separate connection and plug to the SRSCU. If the Max does not have SRS seats, they won't function.

How much of the middle console are you looking to move? Is there a difference in the armrest length between the I30 and the Max. I remember an issue with armrest length when I tried to swap a Max and I30 armrest a few years ago.

I installed some leather seats from a 97 Maxima in the I30 and found a way to trick the SRS unit into not throwing a code because the sears were not connected to the SRSCU. But that is going from non-SRS Max seats to the 99 I30.

What color is the 99 I30 interior? As a side note, I'm looking to purchase some brown SRS dash and steering wheel bags for my 99 I30.

You should check if there are plugs for the heated seats.

Yes, you can transfer the seats and middle console in your car. Just a FYI, you don't have to transfer the console, you can just transfer the heated seat switches if you like. Note that if the I30 seats have side airbags, those won't be functional.

Wiring is not there, but can be added. See my link below; I have pretty thorough instructions there.
