Electronic module connector is missing...
What does that mean? How does it affect you?

@Era2076 : The seat memory switch don't work. I can't move the seats.
I can't find where to buy the connector to plug in this :


@Vince_1972 : merci Vincent, je ne t'oublie pas ! Si je n'arrive pas à faire fonctionner les sièges en version origine je les installeraient en position fixe via des platines en aluminium et le boitier qui va bien pour supprimer le défaut Airbag ;-)

911MTB will become famous soon enough
Interesting work, certainly the best looking 2006 Vantage I've seen. Nicely done!

I order a pair of RECARO seat track, they weight only 2,5kg


Does I use the OEM electric track or the manual RECARO one ?
With the RECARO one I can reduce the total weight arround 15,5kg (33.07lb)...

Rockin - your light seats will bolt to these. Love this setup would like to do similar. Will you cap the console switches? If so what do you have in mind?

You have here the combined effect of 2 changes:
1. Memory adjustment seat vs stock adjustment seat
2. Lightweigth seat frame vs stock seat frame

1. makes all the differences with the connectors etc. I think the memory also has a separate "brain" (storing the positions) which needs connecting.
2. I wonder if you could not simply swap the seat carrying structure from the lightweigth seat frame to the stock seat frame and thus use your old frame & adjustment? Just a thought...
