Regardless if your old seat only had pwr lumbar, all it takes is a pos & ground wire to get your new seat to work. Here is what I did for my sn95 seats. My old seats had pwr lumbar too. Cut off the old seats pwr harness, but make sure you cut back far enough. Basically you match up the wires on the old harness to the new harness. If the new seats harness doesn't plug & play into your old harness, cut the new harness off about 2" from the connector. You then wire match and solder on/connect the wires and plug in. Easy! Here are some pics. I soldered mine on and used shrink tube. Worked great...

On my sn95 seat the middle connector was the only one not connected. So naturally it is the one used for power. Double check with your seat before snipping anything.

Pic only shows me soldering one wire, but I did both. Make sure you slide the shrink tube on before do it.

Slide the shrink tube on & heat. I used a lighter, make sure not to burn up cause it will smoke & catch fire if not carefull. After all that, just plug in the new seat and it should work. If not your SOL good luck
