Default '99 TA Seats in '02 Camaro; Wiring Issues

Hello all,

Got a set of TA seats to swap out for my current stock ones. Passenger switched in 20 minutes But I once I pulled out the driver side I found they both had different connections as well as wires. See below. What are my options here? I couldn't find any adaptors, probably because I'm not really sure what to actually search for, and a full swap of parts would require cutting or other things electricians do...

I May be wrong here, but is it possible to just swap the rails?

Yes. I actually ended up doing it last night. However, because the connection type is different, I had to swap the power controls and panel as well. This swap left out the ability to use the adjustable Lumbar Because of the difference in controls and plastic pieces. Honestly, its something I wish I could have made work, but the ugrade to TA seats was worth it even without the lumbar adjustability.

Nice. I wonder if anyone here has done that swap and successfully got the controls to work. Probably had to do some rewiring

You need the stock harness that goes between the two front trans am seats to make the power bolsters work.

Either that or make your own harness if you have the ability - not that hard.
