I did retrofit this to my 190, 10 years ago. Was a doddle but I cant remember how now!

i think it is pretty straight forward if you know where all the plugs go.It is just 4 of them. it is about 5 years ago i removed it from a donor car but i have forgot all about it

In all fairness I had 2 cars side by side as I changed the interior over...

this mod seems to be a doodle have found out that i need to use the wooden panel around the gear knob the seats harness and panel with the swithches is facelift and the rest of the car is a pre facelift so the old switches does not fit over

Did not get any way with this project... Does anyone know if there is a retrofit wis document on heated seats?
want some kind of wiring diagram so i know where everything goes
one of the problems is that the harness and seats came from a facelift car mine is a pre facelift i do not know if it has anything to say? did not have anything to say when i installed automatic driving lights from the same donor car but dont know if that is the case here..

Form your post, I can't work out if you need the wood surround with heated seat switches for a pre- facelift, or post-facelift. I have both for sale - PM me if you are in need of one or the other.

i have the wood and switches i pulled this off a donor car many years ago just need to wire it up the seats are already in the car..
i have 4 wires which i need to figure out where to wire it to
i have one brown that is obvious ground and goes to the ground terminal behind instrument cluster
i have one that is grey/blue that i thinks goes to the interiour light behind instrument cluster
i have one that is black/yellow that i dont know where to hook up
i have a red one also dont know where to hook up

Got it working... wired the black/yellow to the lower screw at the X 5/1 and the red to one of the two red screws there
the brown to the ground point
the grey/blue to the screw on left side of instrument cluster..

Next project is to get the hazard switch wired up since the connector and switch was different
