CJGREEN Posted August 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Quite a good guide here, showing needing only 2 wires to passenger, 3 to drivers side: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showpost.php?p=4098610&postcount=4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley1995 Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Thats pretty much it i think. An earth and power to each side, and a extra constant live to the driver for the memory. Do love LSB leather... think this will look great once in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGREEN Posted August 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I'm really excited to get it all working and fitted properly. The heated seat part can come later if needs be. The 6hrs, nearly 7hr round trip I did last night has really kicked the love back in for the car. What a tank! Ashley1995 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sive s Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Car looks nice, good that you are going a different route in interior colour. Red an black in silver car are just too common. The laguna seca blue will work with the silver very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touringking Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Just wired electric seats in my tourer, easy enough to be fair. 2 wires for passenger and 3 for the drivers, just abit fiddly at the fuse box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJGREEN Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Be sure to pickup some fuse box terminals if you are planning on following these guides I managed to order the retrofit wiring for the heated seats part which will make that part easier!!
