So in between the fibreglassing that is coming along and I’m just putting the final touches on the rear door and bumper I decided to tackle a whole new piece of the puzzle… wiring.
This car will be a daily driver and I’ve had a few comforts over the years that I want to continue with, and heated, power seats is one of them!
New wire reels in hand I went to work. I needed a way to install a number of fuses as the seats that I picked up from the wrecker (1999 Jeep Cherokee Seats) don’t have any. I found a fuse box on Amazon (10-Way LED Illuminated Automotive Blade Fuse Holder Box Fuse Block with Cover), that I installed on the passenger side under the dash (there isn’t a lot of room under the dash on this car). The plan is to hook it up to the ignition source so when the vehicle is turned on, I’ll get power to everything connected. The beauty of this is that when a fuze is blown it lights up!
Then I started wiring. The switches haven’t arrived yet (ordered from China), but I ran the wires anyways. One set for the power seats and one for the butt warmers. All run through the fuse box in a neat and simple manor.
Feels good to get something like this accomplished, even though it’s small!
