As I get closer to the end of this project, the thing I am anticipating the most is replacing the bench seat with buckets. I finally tracked down an acceptable pair, the console and shifter, and after some shampooing and de-rusting the tracks and mounts, my thoughts went to getting 12V to the driver's seat which needs power. 12V Electricals is probably my absolute weakness, so if anyone can give me a step by step process to get the wire to the seat, I would love to hear it. I don't really care if the wire is always hot or tied to the ignition, but I wasn't sure if there were any relays and such. The controls are on the seat itself. They are from an S-10 Blazer, 2 door so I have the manual lumbar and seat back adjustments plus the tip forward. I still have to get the additional mounts since my 1980 did not have the 60/40. Once I do all that and get the headliner in, it is very close to a road trip!

Hey hey...you imagination is over working!! Well...where to start...My L'il wifey knows how much I like LOOKING at girls in bikinis, so she bought me a poster full of them some years back since we live in Washington and there simply are none here. That room is intending to be my man cave one day, so everything in there is sacred and untouchable. I've attached another with my wife and son from 2016 so you can see there is no pulling or tugging, just all in a row. In the years since then, the poster gets moved out of family shots or covered, turned around...etc. My family roasts me for having it, but it was a gift from my dear wife and I could never, not display it out of respect. GOT IT? :rofl:
