Nice mate, one thing tho pls... i know its to match the paint of the car, but GET RID OF THE BLUE esp. around the handle...
Ruins a classy look IMHO and all in all top effort that is, will it last?

Yeah maybe not get rid of the blue, but tone it down a little? Thats the direction Im thinking of now.

Hopefully it will last.

Nice one Dylan - the black leather looks alright in the pics...as long as it doesn't come off too easily - I reckon you've done good - especially bang for buck value !

You obviously sorted out that rear seat - good on you :)

Np mate... But you owe me a favour, which I will call on later in a PM... :D

When you cut the loom from the dash, you will end up with a 2 pin plug with 2 wires coming out of it.

You will need to take the 2 pins out of this plug. There is a small tab on the inside of the plug. If you get a small screwdriver and lift it, the pin will fall out of the back. Cut the wire off the pin. Or cut the wire short.

Get some decent wire, as I said 7 or 10 amp. The kind of stuff that comes on 10 metre rolls will do. Solder this wire onto the pin, and slide the pin back into the plug. Do one at a time, so you dont get them mixed up.

On the plug that is under the seat, you will have the male version of this door lock plug. There will be 2 coloured wires. One will be red or something, the other will be black.

Push the plugs together. Solder the wire on the plug you made, that corresponds with the red wire under the seat, into a 12v supply. The closest place is the plug that goes into the power window switches in the centre console. This plug has a decent gauge yellow wire going into it. Splice your new wire from the seat base into this yellow wire. So that gives you your 12v into the seat.

Take the other wire from the plug you made, the one correspoding with the black wire from the seat plug, strip one end. There are 3 bolts holding down the park brake handle. Put the end under one of the bolts....

Test seat and if working, repeat for the other side.

Hows that? :D


Ok got the plugs from FTG. Intead of soldering all this s**t together (I cannot solder) can I just use the wires from the plug (yellow and black wires) and then just join them and then run them to their needed locations?
