I have a chance to get some really nice seats from a very low mileage wrecked XJ8 that's a 2005.

Are the floorpans the same in the Cars?

Thanks!

Ken

 

I checked out the seats today.

No way will they fit... The floorpans are totally different.

 

Hello I am new here but I believe our threads may have mutual interst I am attempting to install 12 way seats from a Xj8i into a Chevrolet truck but I am at a loss on the multitude of the wiring and hook up. I will be fabricating an adapter to install into my stock chevy bolts holes. Dave

 

I can give you a hand in sorting things out. The seat is connected to a lot of sensors and in your installation they aren't needed. You will need a wiring diagram ot determine where to power the seat. You must also make sure that the module is in place with the seat.

 

Thank you for your response. Yes I need the correct wiring diagram but I have not been able to locate one. That matches my seats. As far as the memory module I was hoping to not utilize it. Why do I need the memory module? There are many functions and feeds that go into it that I do not want. I was hoping to feed power to the motors and switches alone. I have provided power to the module but I get no responses electrically.
On your project I was curious if you are going to proceed. Getting the seats secured to your floor is rather simple unless your floor has a lot of other obstructions and if you need help with that I might be able to help you. Where are you located?

The seat module tells the seat what to do. Push the forward button and the module tells it to move forward. You dont need most of the module functions but power goes thru the module to the drive that the switch powers. If you provide power to the module it can then contol the seat function. I am in Winchester/Temecull California area.

 

Ok gotcha. Thank you. Any ideas on the electrical diagram would be appreciated.

 

To make the right one available to you I would need to know what year and model Jaguar. I have a few different electrical guides.

 

My seats came from a 2005 XJ8L

Well from the pictures who ever removed them didn't do you any favors. I took a look at the 2005 12 way seat diagram and to me it looks doable to make it work.
