yeah my seats had memory, no pass doesnt work. i didnt splice anything. i just realized that the plugs were very different. jthey dont plug into eachother because there different. so its the red and black? all the red and black? or a certain few? i know theres red and black and then theres all like a black wire with red in it. so many confusing colors!

It will work. You just have to wire it yourself.

Are you putting SRT seats in a regular WK?

Having read the first sentence in the first post, it sounds like you're putting regular WK seats in an SRT.

Am what?

Your Jeep is an 05. Correct?

So you're saying it's only the passenger side with a different plug?

Svenska did a write up on this and he has an 05 with 08+ SRT seats but I don't think his 05 had power on the passenger seat. I'm not sure.

Bottom line is that there is a way.

It seems as if you need you old power seat controls from your old seats.

Don't know. Wish I had the wires and shit in front of me so I can be more help. All I can say is find 12 volts and feed it to the correct wires on the switches.

And you also need the pretensioners from your old seats but you don't have the old seats so now you're going to have an airbag light on all the time in the dash. I got that from Svenska's write up. That's probably the least of you concerns.

Can you post some pictures of the wire harness on the SRT seats? The harness for the switches.

where did you buy them

Glad you're here Svenska.

It should work right? It's just a matter of 12 volts and ground I would assume. You just need to figure out which wire is which.

I swapped the seat tracks in mine, so I can't really help you either. What happened to your old seats?
