Which Seats??

Looking for input on which power seats and out of what are the easiest to install in our Blazers. I know its not proper, but I like comfort and adjustability. Right now I have some seats out of a 90's van, but they are not power and I had to make the brackets for them.

Any input on what you guys have used would be great. Thanks, Jeff.

Not bad really, think I may of had to use spacers under the rear feet but it's been awhile ago now.

Very comfy in a burb or blazer, I didn't care for them in the pick up.

I used the stock seat belts, not the shoulder straps belts on the seats.

Re: Which Seats??

Do you happen to remember what year those came out of? I have a 95 Suburban with power seats in it, but they are terrible about the frames breaking. I have had to replace the seat bottom frame on the drivers side.

Re: Which Seats??

I am in the process of installing power seats from a 99 truck in my '69. The power seats move when I hook power to the orange wire and ground to the solid black wire. What is the black with white stripe for?

I was just thinking should I have started another thread? I haven't been here long... I just also realized I posted this in the blazer/jimmy forum anyway I like the way mine fit in the truck, now I just need to wire them.

Re: Which Seats??

Ya, those are the same as my 95 Suburban seats. I like those too, was just worried about the weak seat frames. Mine in the suburban has broken before. I do like them tho.

Mikey, sorry don't know what the other wire is for, maybe the other direction? I don't have my wiring diagrams over here, but maybe someone else can look it up on the schematic and tell you.
