    Default VT Calais seats into lower end model VT

    So the question is. Has anyone put VT calais seats into a exec/s/ss etc?? with all the electrics working?

    Also is the loom already there for the electric seat on the passanger side?


    I have a VT series 2 2000 Spak. it has an electric drivers seat but only height, not back/foward or tilting the back of it. It has the factory loom sitting there for fog lights, hands free, centre console light etc so i was hoping the calais electric seat loom is already there? lol


    I have a wiring diagram of how the seats are connected if i need to create my own loom. id rather a factory loom tho lol

    Ive got black leather interior from a VZ R8 with 8 way electrics in my exec. Dont need any wiring diagrams or an auto sparky to fit em in, just common sense lol.
    The airbag ones are plug and play, the wires for the electrics - tap them into the cars wiring harness (better that way, you dont want to cut and shut yr cars wiring harness). And for the passenger seat run wires (only 2 - & +) across and connect it to your drivers seat power. I removed the center console and ran the power cables under there, used heat shrink tubing. This way it all neat and professional. You cant see wires or anything.

    Yes there are 2 plugs on each seat.
    Drivers 1 - airbag and drivers seatbelt
    2 - seat electrics

    Passenger 1 - airbags
    2 - seat electrics

    on both seats the air bag connections will be in the car, just plug and play.

    tap the drivers 2nd plug into the cars wiring for the electrics as they are different plugs. this way you dont alter any of the wiring harnesses and it is reversible.
    on the passenger seat 2nd plug again run wire tap ins to the drivers 2nd plug.

    wire tap ins can be bought at any bunnings, jaycar or whatever. few bucks nothing expensive.
