I just bought a pair of 2001 QX4 bucket seats to replace my bench seat in the 97 Hardbody. I feel reasonably sure that they will bolt up, but would like to figure out how to wire the power seats up... The switches are built in to the seat, so I'm assuming I would only need 12V and Ground, but I don't know for sure where to hook it up. Don't want to take a chance of deploying the airbags.
Also, does anyone know if heated seats were standard on the QX4 leather seats in 2001? Don't want it now, but it could be nice in the winter.
If anyone out there has the color codes for the harness on the seat side and could pass that along, I would really appreciate it!

QX4/Pathfinder Power Seat Info Needed
Just dont wire into the Yellow connector under the seat. There should be a maximum of 3 connectors under the seat right? 1 is the yellow one for the airbag [no touchy] Then there will be one with relativly small wires as compared to the third connector which has slightly thicker wires. the one with thicker wires would be your seat power adjustments.
I am not sure these seats will bolt up into your vehicle as your bench seat is bolted down on either side of the cab and does not have mounts in the center. Although you may find the wholes in your floor for bucket seat option in your truck, the inboard rear mount on the pathfinder seats is mounted on a bracket that bolts sideways into the tunnel on the pathfinder. That whole would not line up with the inboard rear mount of the truck.

Thanks for the reply! I thought I had this thread set to email me. As you suspected it looks like the QX4 seats won't be bolting up easily to my truck. I'll probably try to sell them and then work on modding the seats or truck to work with them if I don't get any takers.
Found three or four connectors on each seat. One for the seatbelt, one for the airbag (yellow - already took the pigtail off so I won't touch it), a grey three pin one that I suspect is for heated seats, and a big one on the LH seat. I assume all of the extras are for the memory seat option?
The RH side has a much smaller connector that feeds the switches.
In any case I hope someone can use them... they'll look funny sitting in my house for too long.
Thanks!
