Winter upgrade 2017 / 2018 #01 OEM Carbon Lightweight seats retrofit

1 - Remove the seats
Move back the seat and remove front bolts first
Move forward the seat and remove back bolts
Disconnect the battery and disconnect harness (this is the most difficult step)


The seats are removed :

I install the new seat track support.


The wiring harness is different :


On my wiring (AMV8V 4.3 form 2006) I have only 3 connectors.
Airbag => good
Seat Occupancy Sensor => good
Power => good
Electronic module connector is missing...
