Installing Power Seats Need a little help.
Just picked up a set of late model leather seats from a TA. What do I need to install them in my 93. Currently have manual seats. The new driver seat has power and lumbar and the passanger is a manual seat with lumbar. Any help is much appriciated.

You will need a thick gauge constant power and and a wire harness that goes from drivers side to passenger side seats.
I don't have the part number but I am sure it is listed here and at LS2.com.

So if you only want to connect the driver's seat all you need is a heavy gauge power supply wire. You can ground at the seat track mounting bolt and all the motors and other wiring is self-contained under the seat.

EDIT: Sorry, I wasn't at my desk when I wrote this. The driver's seat is completely self-contained for the power movement but OnA Fan is correct - the lumbar air pump is under the passenger's seat.

Well, I pulled the seats completely out and no sign of an existing harness. Not sure if I should buy one or just make my own splices. Any idea if the wirring between the seats goes color for color or is there a difference? I'd realy hate to fry the motors on these.
