2004 expedition power seat swap question

Hey all,

I just got a '04 expedition xlt. Has cloth interior, pw drivers seat. I'm swapping in a set of Leather seats from a '04 EB. The new passenger front seat is power. I do not see a hidden harness under the carpet anywhere.

What're my options? Can I order a specific harness to connect power the the passenger side? Can I just run a power wire myself? I guess I could swap the leather seat covers themselves onto the old frame?

Please help, doing this tomorrow am.

I would simply do the rail swap, 4 bolts is a lot easier than rewiring and guessing you spliced the correct wire.

Rails are different. Power seat bolts in 6 places, regular seat 4 places. They don't match up at all?

Maybe I'm not reading this correctly but you said your original had a pwr driver seat? This should be a straight up swap....if it didn't have a pwr seat I don't believe that harness was run. You would have to do it yourself.

i think what he means is that the expo, has Power driver seat and Non Power passenger seat, and he got 2 EB Seat which both are powered and hes trying to make the passenger seat power to.

well in my 98 expedition the passenger seat wasnt power, and when i got my Navigator02 it had both powered, so the only thing i noticed that the navigator had was it had a box under the carpet which blew air toward the rear passenger feet, it was wired up to that..

This was the cloth option, driver side power seat onlyN:

•Cloth Captain Seat w/Console

◦MAY BE DELETED. Includes 6 way power driver & driver/passenger manual lumbar.

I would plumb to the same main point using the same type wiring as the driver side. I wouldn't recommend splicing off the driver side. Now I'm not saying I wouldn't try it...the worse that I figure would happen is to blow the fuse. In that case I would put one in that is 5 amps more. But I'm not encouraging anything (wink, wink)

Some fine T&A usually does that for me!
Naturally it pisses the wife off.
