83 944 wiring question
After looking at the wiring under the dash on the driver's side of my'83, 944 and the wiring diagram, the more confused I get. I would like to know what color wire to look for, for the main bus wire that feeds the fuse boxes. All I see are heavy red wire jumpers going every which way. I would like to wire in an aux fuse box for my new seats to run off of. I have the fuse box (VW 4 position). I just need to wire it in so I can put this seat upgrade to bed. Thanks.

Rich,
Pull the ignition switch plug down and trace the wires.
There is a pair of black wires, one of those goes through the fuse panel at connector A and comes out E to go to the ignition coil.
The big fat red wire on the switch comes from the battery.

I suggest finding the Haynes manual, the wiring diagram in there is much easier to understand.
