01 P71 power seat install

I recently bought a 2001 P71 and i am redoing the entire vehicle. I now have the interior stripped and i have decided to go with power leather bench seats. The vehicle IS NOT pre wired for electric seats. I have ripped some power seats from a Grand Mar that are in great shape and want to install them. Could someone please help with a wiering diagram or just tell me where to go and what to do? Also, could you tell me what wires on the bottom of the seat go to the motor that make it recline so that i can recline it in order to clean the seats before install and re-dye the leather? Thak you all.

First, you should get yourself a copy of the Haynes manual for the CV. There are some wiring diagrams in the back of the book that will give you a good idea of what to expect. Also, you may want to go to the Helm auto manual site and order yourself the Electrical and Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual from them.

The sites are as follows;

Yea, I know its an expense, but if you plan on keeping the car for more than a couple of years, its worth it. Figure its about $100 of advice you own, and can help someone else out.
