92Pathmaker Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 (edited) Has anyone here done this? A guy will give me both front seats for $50. I know I will have to do the wiring for the heat, but just wondering if the tracks will match up. Thanks This is for WD21 Edited May 10, 2009 by 92Pathmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Pathmaker Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 I Saw the topic in the garage that said the XE has the wiring already. I looked under the driver seat and didn't see anything. Would the plug be exposed or under the carpet? Is it rare or common to have it? The one that had it was in Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I swapped SE seats into my XE. They bolt right in. Also the wiring for the heat seat to the fuse panel was there, and the fuse was even in the fusebox, but the wiring that goes from the switch to the seat isn't. You'll need to swipe that and the switch from the donor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimGreg Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 My 93 has the little blue connectors under the seats for the heat option. They might be tucked under an opening in the carpet on your's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I paid 100 for all 4 seats and door panels in mint condition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingman Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hmmm, gets me thinking. My '87 has a fuse slot for heated seats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Pathmaker Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 My 93 has the little blue connectors under the seats for the heat option. They might be tucked under an opening in the carpet on your's. I only looked under the driver side and under the carpet there is a blue with three wires and a white one with seven wires. I haven't had time to test them with the test light, but it sounds like the blue one is the one I want. That makes this a really easy swap if you just plug it in then wire in a switch. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zibi Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 buy them anyway. Even if it doesn't have the stock wiring it shouldn't be particularly hard to wire them yourself. 50 bucks is a great deal for heated leather seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Pathmaker Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 I was already planning on buying them tomorrow and doing all of the wiring. I just thought that it was a sweet bonus that most of the wiring is already done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92Pathmaker Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 Instead of $50 for the front two I got all 4 for $60. I put the front two in. They each only have 4 bolts, got it done in 15 min. now I've got leather under my ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
