Swapped my passenger seat and now no power
I have a 96 and recently swapped in a 99 front seat into the car. I used the old rail and motor(which worked) and once I plugged up the harness I can’t get the seat to adjust, however the buckle light that comes on when the door opens is working. Any ideas?

You're probably better off finding a '95-96 seat. '97 and '98-00 had side impact airbags. The seat motors in '98+ cars also work very differently as the body control systems are totally different as far as I know.
If your old seats work fine but are in rough shape cosmetically you may be able to consider swapping just hte leather seat skins, but it's not a small amount of work.

They are totally different seats, totally different motors, totally different signals. You could theoretically embark on a project of making the 99 seat work, but it would be much, much more difficult and expensive than just getting the right part.
