I have an '03 Z with stock manual cloth seats. My wife bought OEM power and heated leather seats (I think from an '05 model). The seats are complete as far as the motors etc. What do I need related to wiring to make them work? Are the power harness connections pre-wired in the car? How about the harness and relay for the seat heaters? I know I'll need the switches for the heated seats, do I need anything else to mount these switches?

Guess I should have expected a pile of smart-@ss responses to a serious question.

I'll rephrase...

I would like to perform a "factory type" install of heated leather seats in an '04 performance model that came with cloth, manually operated, and not heated seats. I have the seats and all the components of the seats such as motors, tracks, etc. I don't have any wiring beyond the plugs at the bottom of the seats except for the factory switches for the heaters. I don't want to cut the stock wiring harness, cut holes for $3 radio shack switches, or half-@ss some bs wiring. Does anybody know what components of the factory harness are already in the vehicle and what components of the factory harness do I need to acquire? Looking at the crappy info in the manual I have, it appears there is a section of wiring harness that goes from the main harness to each seat and another one that goes to the switches in the console. Are any of these already present? What about the relay for the heaters? Is the base harness not set up so that the factory harness etc can be installed in a "plug & play" type situation?

I take it the link did not help.

I had found it before posting my question and it doesn't address factory wiring/switches. I want to be able to remove the seats and return it to the original state if I sell the car in the future.

I take back my last comments that the link does not address factory wiring.

I just read it again and it does state that the main harness in the cloth seat models does not have the connectors for "plug-n-play" hook up of the power & heat functions. Of course, I spent several hours today removing most of the interior to look and see if there were connectors.

I guess I'll be looking at wiring diagrams sometime soon to figure out how to wire the power and heat using the factory heat switches and seat connectors. Luckily (?) I don't have side airbags in either set of seats.
