Hi Everyone....
Does anyone know whats involved in fitting the front seats from an Elite (With Memory) into a CDX ? - Apart from the heat pads & airbags - would the supply for the adjuster's be the same as the CDX height adj or is there a different loom/ECU for the elite?
TIA.... Steve
-
The Elite seats have the ecu attached. your power feed to the old seats is used to feed power to the new ones. I did it a while back but tbh I cant rememebr the finer details, it was pretty simple though.
-
Excellent....
That's kinda what i'd hoped - the ECU is in the elete seat - so just give it power :y - Whilst at a scrappie on friday I found an elite with better cond front seats than mine -
...."Nice"
-
The connectors are different, but simple enough - there are some wiring diags here somewhere which should help, possibly in maint guides.
Ensure the seats are from the same era as your car (prefacelift, minifacelift or facelift), else you will get in a whole heap of trouble with airbags, pretensioners and seat heaters (the later will probably have failed anyway)
-
Yeah.... I don't see it being rocket science, The main point was the adjuster ECU being in the elite seats (or did i have to get that as well) - I'll chop a section of the elite loom when i remove them - Mine's a 98 and the elite is an S plate... so all should be cool, At least easier than changing my ABS ecu.... Look like i've stuck my hands in a bag of cats !!! :o

Oh Wow...
That's saved a whole load of messing....
Now all i have to do is set a memory position that is fully forward & connect it to the alarm....
"Hey presto - car thief gets pinned to the steering wheel" :y
Thanks

It would be even better if the drivers side air bag could be fired ;D

Used to know a bloke who wired the deadlocking into his alarm and trapped the potential theif inside if you want the wiring diagram, Steve.....................!!

.... Anything is possible, A while ago, whilst living in manchester, a friend (!) of mine, who can only be discribed as "Tackleburry" from police academy, worked at a biological research lab, and being slightly miffed from having his car constantly broken into installed a "device" in his car radio - Suffice to say the basics of this were...
... A few lengths of wire, a "det-cap" and a condom filled with somthing that had been made in a fume cuboard and smelled like almonds ....
I think the idea was - thief steals radio.... connects the "Red" wire to a supply - "POP"..... "Oh I feel funny"....... Slump!
He did have that... radio stolen but never again.... Funny that :y
I did suggest that leaving his Bucks-Fizz tapes in it would be a better deterrant but hey ho

in the early ninties i had a renault espace the drivers seat could be locked facing the rear seats rendering the car un driveable with out the keys
