I purchased an immaculate set of leather front seats with electrics to retrofit into my 2009 2.0 HDI VTR+.
Having now delved into this further, I realise that the retrofit is at best an onerous task and at worst impossible! The seats came with the under seat ECU plus connectors and a cut off portion of about 6 inches of the original wiring to the rest of the car. I also bought the door harnesses, door memory ECU and memory button door switch from the same car. Fitting the harness to the driver's door was relatively straightforward but the electric seat doesn't do anything. However, the passenger door mirror no longer folds. I am reasonably adept at electrics, in that I can follow a wiring diagram and test individual components. I cannot find a clear wiring diagram of the door, seat and in between wiring loom anywhere. Your help/ thoughts please, or should I give up and reinstall the original door loom?

Personally I don't have a problem with manually adjusted seats so I'd possibly swap the leather covers over to the original seats or resell them and live with the material!! 
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Put everything back to standard for now but would still like to get hold of proper wiring diagrams for this message delivered. Any idea where these can be obtained?
