Power Seat Connection - FOUND! ha. Move my seat again you &(@$&*@(!

[theoctopussi]

found the connection for the power seat... its underneath at the front of the seat (driver side), closest side of the seat to the door. you can feel around for the cable and find the connection. take a flat head to it, viola, it pops off... so fear NOT takin your car to the dealer anymore!!!

**and its NOT WAY UNDER the seat, its almost in the open under and behind the kangaroo pouch

would it be too much trouble to ask for a pic?

[theoctopussi]

I'll post some... my bad, but I was at work on break when I did it haha ... I'll take some crappy fone pics...

[BlackNWhite]

Lol. I was gonna say something stupid like, "Yea... like the dealer wouldn't be able to figure out what's wrong with the seat."

But then I thought about it... and they probably wouldn't.

[adidas2go]

I cannot believe it takes you months to find your correct seat postion.... Takes me about 15 secs

[AZhitman]

I can't believe anyone's a$$ is that sensitive.

God forbid they adjust your mirrors.

[AppleBonker]

God forbid they adjust your mirrors.

Well, you could take them off...

It frustrates me when they move my seat to drive the car 10 feet, but definitely not enough to unplug the power seat. In my mind, I'd rather have them move the seat so they can actually drive the car than damage it (driving a manual transmission car with the seat way too close or way too far back can easily make you let the clutch out at the wrong time).

i'm with you on that AppleBonker... you never know if it's gonna be a really short person moving your car.. in that case they will NEED to move the seat. Just like my mom, when she has to move my car off the driveway so she can get out of the garage.. she's tiny, so she moves the seat as far forward as it can go, and she never moves it back! but at least she doesn't need to wake me up at 6AM to get me to move it myself...

[adidas2go]

Haha, far from perfect, but good enough to find a seat position with an electronic switch

[theoctopussi]

apple, id rather move my own car lol i'm too ocd like that haha my wife doesn't even drive my car... and wen I used to drive her civic, I never moved her seat... but her new maxy got the seat position memory, real sex right there lol

[theoctopussi]

oh i waz ina porno it was called Bang Me From Behind... LMFAO... it was easier to find with the old skool clicker/handle, now it doesn't feel right for a long time... I got the perfect height, perfect angle, perfect lean, just far back enuff so I don't look like my grandma, but just close enuff so I can ram into 5th gear.

If you are so anal about people driving your car, and you don't let anyone drive your car. They why unplug your seat? When you go to the dealer, can't you just say, Don't move my seat. lol

[theoctopussi]

I have, and do, and no one listens.... lol.... no one.... i get that sh*t back all f*cked up and they only drive it 10 20 feet... plus, I feel like a d*ck when I tell em to not move my sh*t even tho its MY sh*t lol so now I take two seconds to unplug it... so nice.

[bina12834]

lets get that pic so i know im unplugging the right one!!!!!

[theoctopussi]

pics added... see top.

[Sentientbydesign]

I have sooooo many comments. I don't feel like getting the heat from the rest of the staff, so I'll just let you know that the comments exist despite me not making them.

[theoctopussi]

?? wut happened?

[adidas2go]

In short, Nate says you

[AZhitman]

I suppose it'd be too much work to read the FSM and do the work on our car yourself....

Just seems silly to me to disable the seat positioner... but hey, it ain't my car.

[theoctopussi]

lol you guys are pricks... as you guys can see, some people do feel what I'm sayin... so if you don't, then don't say anything. Apparently the thread wasn't for you - feel me? I didn't ask for opinions. if you don't understand that I pay for my car and wish for folks not to move my sh*t, then don't comment. When people post what I think is dumb sh*t I don't give them sh*t back. And remember tone is lost on here.

on a lighter note... I dropped my car off at the dealer today, and watched the guy struggle tryin to move my seat after I asked them not to. and then he asks, "did you kno your seat doesn't move", I said "yeah, I fixed it so you guys couldn't move it" LMFAO the service advisors started crackin up hahaha

Other than the few "winners" who have mommy and daddy pay for their ride, we ALL pay for our rides. Instead of disabling your seat and possibly making it impossible for others to drive your car in an emergency situation (though many of us would be torn to determine your injury as an emergency), why don't you just use visual markers in your car as a way to adjust your seat back?

I drive my wife's celica once in a blue moon and I usually put it back within 1 click of where it started because I have this amazing thing called a b-r-a-i-n.

EDIT- I just read through all of the comments and NOBODY was "feelin what you were sayin".

I get annoyed when my 10-way adjustable seat gets moved too, but I get a clue and just move it back.

[AZhitman]

Well, the good news is, you'll never have to worry about inadvertently moving the seat when you're in the middle of smoking a G35 or an A8.

[theoctopussi]

yeah I got a brain meng and I can put my seat back... and we're still talkin bout my car homie... simple as that. and if Bina askin for pics wasn't showin enuff interest for you then your bad :] I saw it as someone else I was helpin out with what I considered an annoyin issue.

[theoctopussi]

it was an S4 that got smoked ...

and yeah, I've inadvertently move my seat while washin my car... so that solve my problem...

anyone else feel like hittin the issue? its such a small thing but everyone got somethin to say lol niiice...

[adidas2go]

it was an S4 that got smoked ...

Thats a joke right?

[theoctopussi]

nope... took him out and, I think, a mustang too... on the freeway. no biggie. off the line, YEAH RIGHT. the guy just couldn't drive that beautiful car... and he started the egging on... lol... but don't start the sarcasm and judgin and blah blah blah...
