went to the salvage yard on tuesday and found a 97 exploder with a powered seat and a center console. So here are some pics of what I did..

Before:


And After:



Now I'm gonna get some material for the boot and need to get a new cover for the arm rest because there is a small tear but that should be easy =)

Thank you everyone! I did not have power seats before so what I did was took the cigarette lighter that was below my stereo and rewire it so it goes to the new one on the center console AND goes to the power seat. I just split it so it can go to both of them. Now all I need to do is bolt it down still and get the new boot and I'll be set

Very nice...I want to do that with mine too...although I do like to have the centre cleared for when I change seats to let someone else drive for a while...on the move it's kinda dangerous so we have to be quick...

So today I went back to the salvage yard and got the other seat to match..I was ok with it till one of my friends said something and it got in my head lol so I had to have it match. I also finished the center console today.






The boot is kinda ridiculous but it works and the new cover for the arm rest came out very well, I'm pretty proud of it lol and no scratches or holes!!
