Depending on the seats you using (built year) and buid year of the car

The SEAT module must be connected to the CAN bus
On some vehicles the switches go directly to the SEAT module but on others the Switches are connected to the K Bus of the centerconsole. Check wiring diagrams for your car and for your seats(could be different)!!

Than you have to put a hard wired link to identify the correct seat on te CAN bus.

The last you have to do is checking type of seat occupation mat. If it is same as old seats(f.e. OC3) otherwise you have to code MRS module with the correct one.

Power line(30) (+12v and -12v) to different pins/location, add extra(15) +12V and -12V, add extra K Bus, add KCAN Bus, ad extra ground for seat ident, change fa accordingly then code suitable modules and you are good to go then
