STOKED!!! Power passanger seat in L model! (DIY for 150bucks)

AFter many hours at looking at the wires and harness' on the seat and car, I hate Acura/Honda even more. There are soo many extra wires that are POINTLESS. <-- my vent

DIY power passanger seat:

Step 1: Buy a used power passanger seat. (junkyard or car-part.com)
Get the cheapest one you can. All you need are the chairs electronics.

Step 2: With your new power seat, switch out your cusions/leather and put them on your newly obtained power chair. (clean it and lube up the motor rails)

Step 3. Place the power seat into your car. The ONE and only harness you will work with is this Brown one (circled in green):

(YOU DONT NEED THE PURPLE ONE)

Step 4: Unbolt your drivers passanger seat and look for the BROWN harness. You will be tapping off this one.


Step 5. splice the BLACK one and White w/ red line. Then get 2 wires that are 4ft long each. Connect each one and crimp it.



Step 6. Now that it is connected, run the 4ft of wire under your carpet, through the console and under your carpet to the passanger side.

Step 7. You will connect the ends of these wires to the associated color.
The BLACK drivers side connects to the BLACK passangers side
The White w/ red drivers side connects to the White w/ red passanger side.

In my illustration, I had the connector. You will have to Crimp the wires together. I recommend you buy a connector incase you ever have to remove the seat.



Step 8. TRY IT OUT!!!! Power passanger seat
a. drivers side does not control passanger side
b. passanger seat does not have UP/DOWN feature
