4th Gen power seats into my 84' bird

Hey y'all.
I know these seats I'm getting will bolt right in, but my questions is regarding the power seats.

I want to hook them up so they work correctly. Do I just need to get power to them, or is there more that I need to do?

I've got an '84 Firebird w/o power seats at the moment.

Thanks guys!

Miah

Just as Joe said, all you need is 12 volts and a ground.

If you want to do it up just right look for the wiring protector - Looks like a flat plastic tunnel that goes under the carpet to protect the wires.

The way the factory set up the power seats in 1984 was just a power wire running to the junction block above the driver's side kick panel so can't think of a reason why you couldn't set up 4th-gen seats like that too.
