Re: IML: stuck-up seat in a '71

[RandalPark@xxxxxxx]

I should add that when I have done this, I temporarily connect the wires in the other positions to get the seat where I want it to be, and then put everything back the way it belongs. That usually works until I bring the car in for service, someone moves the seat, and I can't move it back again. Then, I do the whole thing over. Someday I will have to fix it correctly!
