    Seat controls

    Hi folks
    If, hypothetically of course, a bloke was thinking of adding a 1990 Vogue SE to the stable, but it had broken/incomplete electric seat controls...

    ...how hard is it to repair/renew said seat controls?

    Someone did write elsewhere they were identical to those in his 1987 Mercedes 300TD.

    Cheers
    Mike

    As I recall I think new hand switches were about the $300 mark but then maybe the wreckers are your friend [where parts come with a 3 month warranty too if you buy from the right place].

    Thanks guys
    I had heard of someone doing that and also using rocker switches, but until I get the car, hard to know what's involved . Doesn't sound like it should be too hard to sort something out then...

    it is very easy to convert to rcoker switches i have done it, but being the perfectionist i am i'm not 100% happy with it not being original. finding a place to mount the switches easily is also a mission, well in my soefdash andyway, i still havny got them mounted i just connect the loom when i want to move the seat (rarely)

    There was a tutorial somewhere on repairing the switches, bit of searching should locate it.
