E28 power seat harness problem.

The leather seats in my '82 528e were completely worn and torn. After about a 
year of searching the Roundel for used E28 blue interior, I finally found a blue
leatherette interior from an '88 535. The 535 had crashed and the owner had put 
the interior in storage, it is in perfect condition.

The problem is that my original seats are manual and the replacement seats are 
power. For now, I have mounted the replacement seats on the original seat 
brackets so that I can move the seat forward and back. I cannot recline the 
seats or adjust the hearest etc. 

In order to hook up the power seats I need an wiring harness. There are modular 
plugs on each seat that connect into a harness. Does anyone out there have a E28
parts car with a power seat wiring harness that I can buy. 

I don't think that power seats were an option in '82. Does anyone have 
suggestions as to where the power seat harness can be connected.


Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA,

Charles Karnati
