Default Electric seat (not heated, no airbag) wiring help please

Hello, new UK member here, can anyone help me as I’m a bit stumped. I bought a VW T5 and it has Jaguar electric seats (unsure of the model but reckon they are probably late noughties/early 2010s) They were working fine until I removed them to fit the leisure battery under the drivers seat. The drivers seat has all the gubbins, fuse box etc and I can see where the live (blue) goes back however, when I removed the passenger seat, the lives came came straight out with the seat and I didn’t see where they go back to (I wound some electrical tape around them for the time being to stop the wires from being damaged). I assume one has to go to the motor of the electric seat and one goes to an existing live, I’m not very experienced with auto electrics, can’t read the jaguar wiring diagrams for toffee and I can’t seem to find any help on YouTube. Any help greatly appreciated.



TIA

Elbee, somewhere on the seat should be a part number. You are going to know it is a part number because it should follow a pattern like "1x43-12345-ab". If you can find that on the seat, then I can tell you the general year and model that the seat came from. Then we can wire up the seat for you. If you show a picture of the seat top (ie, where you sit), this may also give us some hint as to what it came from.
