Are you sure this diagram is the right one? Seat switch connector is the same as on the memory switch and has less wires..

Yeah I think the diagram applies only to my lux seats for the 2013 GS.

you mean soft close doors? I have seen aftermarket kits for that. Someone on Facebook gstars group installed it, was a lot of work to remove the door lock. That person also installed a 360 camera system too.

He had gray seats but switched them out for the lux seats. The lux seats are hard to find so I guess he settled for Black.

What’s the point of having those buttons? What do they do and why would you want to do that? I’ve never been in a car that has them, so I’m just wondering.

Yes, LS switch. Same diagram I used that Alex posted.

Yup, my car’s interior is originally black. I found all 4 grey panels at a junk and swapped them out. Black was too boring.

Just ease of adjustment for driver. For example, I carry a lot of passengers and they move the seat all the way up. Once they leave, the seat obstructs my view, so now I don’t have to reach over 90ft to move it back.

I think I would stare at the display instead of the windshield, so that last mod is not for me.
