Default how to wire power seats???

I just purchased a set of C5 power sport seats off of ebay to install in my custom pickup. Does anybody know which wires I need to connect the hot and ground too? Appreciate the help in advance.

Driver's Seat

You need two power feeds to the seat relay center. One is protected by a 10 Amp fuse. The other is protcted by a 20 Amp Circuit Breaker.

The 10 Amp circuit feeds in through the 26-Way connector (C1 - Red) and is at pin 3 ...... it is an orange wire.

The 20 Amp circuit feeds in through the 6-Way connector (C3 - Black) and is at Pin A ...... it is an orange wire.

The Ground wire is Black and comes off the 6-Way connector (C2 - Green) and is at Pin C ..... it is a Black wire.

Passenger's Seat

You need two power feeds to the seat relay center. One is protected by a 15 Amp fuse. The other is protcted by a 20 Amp Circuit Breaker.

The 15 Amp circuit feeds in through the 26-Way connector (C1 - Nat) and is at pin 3 ...... it is an orange wire.

The 20 Amp circuit feeds in through the 6-Way connector (C3 - Black) and is at Pin A ...... it is an orange wire.

The Ground wire is Black and comes off the 6-Way connector (C2 - Lt Green) and is at Pin C ..... it is a Black wire.

==================

The passenger Fused circuit could be a 10 Amp fuse ... apparently that fuse in the Corvette drives the lumbar siupport pump.
