i put temporary power on my sons when we fitted elec seats to his 924 turbo. Run lead from brown to earth and live lead (i put through inline fuse to be sure)to red and then you can move seat. I just took live straight from battery. Still need to wire up properley. Think i recall thread on Pelican Parts forum to do this

Hi :)

I "think" you can also move the seats with an Allen key....but you may have to take the seats back out to do it :(

All the best Brett :)

You can front to rear . If you take off front cover underseat you will see little crown wheel with allen key centre. This will move seats front to back, not sure on height adjust you may have to remove seat again to get at it

I ran a wire from the fusebox under the carpets over to the seat. Theres a few terminals on the underneath of the seat. Can quite remember how i wired it now, but i worked it out by trial and error then used some standard push fit electrical connectors in the end. Easy enough to do.
