Go back to the main connector and find the big red wire and the big brown wire. Supply 12v and grounf to those and your seat switches will then work to run the motors.

Harvey, lol. There was a quarter, a dime, and a penny under the back of the seat. I didn’t catch the penny in the pic, good eye! Who know what I’ll find under the seat. The wasps that moved in , combined with the mrs. honeydoo list had me reconsider this project for another day. Fighting the drivers seat first, as it has a huge chunk out of it, I want to take it to an upholstery shop for repair.
From what I can tell, although the seats are cloth, a little repairs not withstanding, I should be able to use all 4 seats in my euro!

Given the change under the seat, I would guess that there is another coin (or two) in the track that is preventing the seat from going all the way forward. Run it back a bit, find a kid with little hands and have him (her) reach up and try to clear the track.
No clue about the wires and plugs. That looks nothing like the wiring on my 85 8 way seats.

Those connectors are actually part of the audio system wiring. Never have figured out why they were put under the driver's seat. The little colored dots were from the factory, I am pretty sure.

Ron just happy the parts car is still giving to help the other cars. I think that small investment has paid off several times over. How was the gas tank on that car?

This car still has a lot to give. The tank was good. I put it on the 79 Euro, as it had a hole smack in the bottom. So far it has held the 3 gallons or so I have put in it just fine.
