removing electric seats with no power?
is it possible to move electric seats manually?
getting them from a scrap car and doubt they'll be any key to switch the power on or are they permanently live? failing that is it possible to stick a live and earth wire into the plug and give them life that way? if so which holes? lol |

hopefully i'll have access to a battery so will wire them direct if i need to (i'll twist in an inline fuse for safety) |

I've done it with a battery before. Just unplug the motor at the front of the seat and stick one pos and one neg onto terminals. Swap them over to move the other way. I wouldn't worry too much about a fuse either but that's up to you

got them out ok
used the drill method as no power available, workd fine just took a bit of faffing about they may be up for sale later depending on whether or not i strip them down for the switches for mine. would be a shame as they are monogram black/grey sport seats but having no joy finding a side panel and switches for my black ones |
