I want to transplant some SC400 seats into another Toyota ( without power seats) , since the SC Seats are more comfortable and offer lumbar support.
The question is, If I just put the 12Volts to the seats, are there any other electrical connections that I will need to sort through to have them function properly? (Other than the seatbelt sensor?) (I dont need the memory function.)
I realize I will have to make brackets for the seats.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Electrical issue can be worked out (other than cosmetic issues), but the mechanical should not be jury-rigged. The seat carries the occupant and in case of an accident, plays an important part. Even if the holes matchup, you may like to add re-inforcement to compensate for additiopnal mass.

Think twice.
