Default Front power seat swap question- 98 S-series

I probably overlooked it in my search so I must ask...
My 98 Blazer has a power drivers seat (just power up and down/forward and back) and a full manual passanger front seat. I just aquired a free pair of seats out of a 98 Bravada that's becoming a keychain in the morning. Drivers seat is full power adjust with power lolumbar and heated, passanger has power lumbar and heated (unfortunatly they are tan leather and I have dark grey cloth, but I have seat covers). How much extra wiring will I end up having to do or 'should' I be basicly plug and play? I'll end up finding out the hard way probably this weekend (and got other crap to deal with as well) but just looking for some insite before I start.

Thanks ahead of time for any help on what to be ready for

Should drop right in. The pass side will have the harness tucked under the carpet.
I swapped in trailblazer seats into my ride...simple plug and bolt in.

Perfect, just the kind of news I was hoping to hear! I basicly want them for the heated fact (and the recline works in the drivers seat, mines currently snapped off where the handle would mount). Plus any free upgrade is an awesome upgrade!

Got them in yesterday, no wiring on the passenger side so I'll have to tap that one in eventually (flipped the carpet and unless it's under the center console, it was forgotten in mine) but the drivers side was cake other than that stupid torx head bold breaking 3 of my sockets.

I'm also looking for some information on tapping into the DS seat wiring to supply power to the PS seat. Does anyone have any information on where the factory harness tapped in for the models that came with both? Is it under the console, under the seat, or by the firewall?


Thanks,

Hans

I know this is a old post but wondering if you ever got them working? I plan on doing this.

I've had too many other things on my plate to worry about the passanger side since putting them in, but now the weather is starting to attempt to warm up. I may attempt to tackle it finally (after getting the steering situated, the heater box door fixed, the long list my Nissan needs, some things the 2 small cars need.. And ten there's non-automotive stuff...). Need to take a break and make a pick a part run and see if one has a harness I can just yank

Thanks for the reply, I am going to put mine in in the morning. Was hoping that the rears would fit in my 2 door I didn't realize the 4 door seat where bigger, well didn't pay attention to the size diff anyways.. So guess now will be in search of some 2 door rear leather once.
