Default Quick question about seats

Hey I was wondering if there's a way to get power seats hooked up on my blazer.

Now here's the kicker... Wife (and father in law) stumbled apon a set of buckets seats (lumbar,heated etc) leather great condition and picked them up.
Off a silverado..

So.. Basically... How lol.. How do I hook up power seats?
Seats have harnesses.. But does my truck? And will it fit? If not can I make it fit?.. Any input is greatly appreciated!!

I think the silverado seats might be too wide. hopefully someone can chime in on this

its very easy to hook up power seats. I think you can just pull power from the ignition or battery and your set.

Look under the drivers seat, you'll probably see the harness on the floor for power seats. As for fit, I'm not sure so measure & compare the old & new-to-you.
If you have to, you may be able to swap the sliders/mounts over.
Best way to see about that is to take the drivers seat out & compare them upside down.

There's 4 different harnesses under there... The question is where do I hook them up? Is there already harnesses in my truck? If so Where?

Ahem ^^^^ under the seat lol. Take a pics of the harness & see if it'll hook up with the seat or vice versa.
