Manual Seats to Power Seats

I wanted to know if the power units in a power seat are direct bolt on to a manual seat.

Re: Manual Seats to Power Seats

I was wondering the same thing. I'm about to buy a set of power (I think) leather seats, and I was wondering how hard it would be to wire it.

The tracks just bolt straight on to the manual seats. The wiring plug should be there on nonpower cars too i think.

Re: Manual Seats to Power Seats

I'd like to get rid of my power seat for a manual seat.

Less weight.

It does have a small (3in or so?) rip in it, I am going to see if my mom can maybe stitch it back together(rofl). I'd probably be willing to trade my power for a manual seat, and include seat covers as well if the seat I'm recieving isn't ripped.

It's from a 94, I'm not sure what other years are identical, it's a grey seat.

Re: Manual Seats to Power Seats

Where would the plug be located? Under the tracks themselves? I havn't taken the seats out yet, just wondering where to look for the plug. Thanks for all your guys help!

Re: Manual Seats to Power Seats

If anyone else wants to trade their manual base for a power base, let me know. I want to remove mine for weight savings too.
