    HELP! power seats in a XLS

    Yea I thought about cutting the harness out and going that route but wanted to leave it all intact if I could like I did on the passenger side. Either way is ok with me if you know which color wire is for the power. There is like 8 different wires that have red in them but no single solid red wire.

    third gen full interior swap (2002-2005)

    i didnt think about that but i dont think that will work either since the leather seats have head rests and my old cloth ones dont. i have the same exact cloth interior as pictured in the original post.

    the check gauge light comes on because its warning you that you have low fuel...if your fuel gauge is not working then thats a different issue.

    That's odd - bigger tires corrected my speedometer

    I had a similar issue with my 02 ex but my speedo would read low according to my gps with the stock tires and now it reads high with the 265/75/16's that are on it now. So I guess my ex wants bigger than stock tires but not as big as my current rubber lol!
