@davinci, I fitted q5 seats, got the power direct from the fuse box, adding a new fuse.
As Swan says, a new loom can be made from the 2 guys mentioned, for electrics, heated pads and air bags.

@papa near. I thought you may have gone directly from the fuse box, but I wasn’t 100% sure so I didn’t want to say.
Does each seat have its own fuse?

To be honest it seems like years ago I did it and I can’t remember. I remember fitting 2 thermal fuses, think it was one normal fuse in the fuse box though.


We cleaned the whole of the inside today, after transporting 175 used paving stones (not all in one trip) it looked a bit like a beach in the back.

Been trying to find the wiring diagram I drew up for the seats with no luck.


Been slacking on the garden redo due to back issues. Now back on it, should have the garden cleared ready for rotavating in a couple of weeks. Kitchen coming along nicely, just finished the tiling.

Yeah I’ve been thinking about new seats at some point. I’m not mad keen on the ones I have.

I got some spare latch covers depending on what colour you want. I ordered a pair and they sent me 5 pairs.

Search "VW striker cover" on eBay. The latch is the part that's in the door, the striker is the part you want the cover for.
