V90/960 Seats into 940
Around a month ago saw a lovely set of grey leather seats for £100 including fronts that were electric.= from a V90/960.
On a search it would seem the fronts would fit but need power supply to them wiring in? Has any one retrofitted? Also presume need to wire in memory function if they have it? Other issue is estate rear seat latching mechanism is bound to be different. Do they actually fit a 940? At some point being a workhorse full leather would be great as wipeable and look very comfortable. Currently have half grey leather in my 1996 940 LPT estate. James. |
Rears fit fine as do fronts but not sure on front electric wiring

As far as i'm aware, the wiring is usually there for the electric seats, just need to plug in and add a fuse.
Might pay to take your drivers seat out, lift the carpets up and find the wiring tucked away sometimes folded and taped back on the trans tunnel or alternatively assume you'll need to run wiring but sounds like a bargain to me. If you do get them, first thing i would do is to give them a through clean with AutoGlym Leather Cleaner then once they are clean, inspect for any damage, scuffs etc and sort those out with leather dye (i can provide links if you need them) then treat the leather to at least one, if not two doses of AutoGlym Leather Balm. Before putting them in the car for work use, invest in some nylon waterproof seat covers so when you get in after a dirty day at work, you don't mess your seats up. :thumbs_up: |

I'll keep an eye out for another set. Yes seat covers would be used! Would be a nice upgrade to my 940! James.:thumbs_up: |

Decent ones don't hang around for long. I got my set for £100 and had a local trimmer tidy them slightly and swap seat bases. I cleaned and fed with gliptone products and they came up lovely. I would link to my thread if I knew how to do it..........hint hint Dave:teeth_smile:

Good evening pals.
I've been doing this today. 75% done but left driver seat. There is a 2 pin plug (black) which does the heated seat and a 4pin plug which I assume does the electrickery for the seats. Problem is, the existing plug has only 2 slots in, not 4. I think I need to get the wiring plug from an electric seat car and then graft some. Wiring to the back of fuse 7. Cheers, Fred |
