4th gen seats need help on the install
hi guys just bought a pair of trans am seats out of a wrecked firehawk at the junkyard, putting them in my 86z just how do i go about hooking up the power and the air hoses from the seats, do i need to just cut the plug off the power and hook it up, and split off a vaccum line and run to the seats, any help ?

well the power plug is different thats what im asking, theres 4 wires instead of the two on my orginal seat, on the new one theres your hot and ground and then two grey ones ? , on the air hoses just one tube, anyone???????
I'm not positive, but I'm thinking the two grey could be from the lumbar control on the pass. seat, to control the pump, which is under the drivers seat.
There should be a harness on the donor car that runs under the carpet between the seats, that has this wiring, and the hoses to connect the two seats.
If you can get to the donor, get the harness, also get the main plug TO the drivers seat, then get a plug from a thirdgen drivers seat. Splice the last two together, you've just made an adaptor so you don't have to cut any wires on your car, or your new seats. At least thats the way I did mine.
Hope this helps!

yes...just 1 tube on the airhose.
the switches in the passenger seat operate solenoids which direct the path for airflow.
