We first tested the cobra seat to check which motor controlled the same adjustments. We clipped the connector of the V-6 Seat and we cut the connector off the cobra seat for just the up, down, back and forth adjustment. Then we connected the connector from the V-6 seat to the cobra seat by stripping the wires back, soldering it on and using heat shrink on it for a good connection. Then we mated the seat connector to the wire harness on the car and it worked.

We still have to run power to the other motor that controls the side bolsters and lumbar, I just have been working so much and since its my daily driver, we havent had time to do it.

Now Im kicking my self cause I should have done a step by step write up on it...I never thought anyone else would want to go thru the trouble of doing that, and we had been drinking while we did it...LOL

just cause i lub you...and you should send me one of those decals for free. ^-^



have seen a few people lately asking how to do this. This is absolutely as easy as can be, even for the novice. Extra care MUST be taken when removing the old and putting in the new seats so as not to scratch/gouge the console and door sills, and the 04s are noticeably heavier than the SN95s. The passenger side is a straight swap. The rears are self explanatory, except for the fact that I had to swap out seat back frames to get the seat frame to screw in and latch without modification. There is only one bolt and a dowel holding each seat back to the frame. And make sure you dont break the plastic retainers when removing the bottom of the rear seats, these were the hardest part of the entire deal. Follow these instructions and EVERY FUCTION WILL WORK!!!


ON THE DRIVER SEAT -
1. Remove the factory connector from the '03/04 cobra seats.
2. Connect both GREEN wires together.
3. Connect a crimp connector to the BLACK wire.
4. Connect a crimp wire to the BLUE wire.

IN THE CAR -
1. Remove the factory connector from the seat power harness.
2. Connect a crimp connector to the BLUE wire (+12 volts).
3. Locate the BLACK wire (GROUND), but DON'T Crimp YET!
4. Remove the factory seatbelt attachment from the car floor.
5. Disassemble the seatbelt and cut the 2 wires that connect under the console.
6. Check with a digital meter for continuity. One wire will have continuity to GROUND. Connect this to the BLACK wire and crimp.
7. The other wire from the seatbelt will need a crimp connector.

FINAL INSTALL -
1. Connect the 2 Black GROUND wires from the car to the BLACK wire on the seat.
2. Connect the BLUE wire from the car to the GREEN wires on the seat.
3. Connect the seatbelt BLACK wire to the BLUE wire from the seat.
4. Finish bolting in the seat.

I've heard the Cobra seats won't wire up correctly unless you put halos in the car. :dunno:

I don't want weed...i already have to much. I think i have like a pound ready to smoke lol.

...anyways this kid is kinda giving me a hassle about these seats. He want em to buy them but he is taking his sweet time getting some different seats :nonono:.

...if i cant get the seats i am getting 1 really expensive recaro or Sparco Full race bucket O0
