New Seats - need help with wiring 5k to 200

[Andrew Dickinson]

We found that you can change the whole harness on the seat itself with
the exception of the seat belt warning connector and a large red/green
wire which we cut and solder spliced.

There are 2 connectors to the motors that are soldered so you need to
touch the iron to them as you pull them off.  Then the switch for the
seat back position needs the same solder heat-to-flow for removal.

It isn't that hard to do.  Figuring it all out we took about 4 hours but
it could be done much faster not having to ponder things.  HTH.

If you decide to go this route let me know. I've got all of the wiring 
already removed from the 5ktq race car I'm building. I removed them with
the 
intent of saving - I didn't cut any wires except a few ~10awg that were 
semi-permanently fastened to the fuse panel.
