Hey guys! I recently got a pair of seats with electric lumbar from an extended cab 96 F-150 and mounted/welded them into my truck (strangely they werent the stock mounting holes despite being stock seats but I figured they were different from standard and extended cabs) and I was wondering how I could connect the electric lumbar? There is a wire coming out of the bottom of my cab that connects to another wire behind my driver seat but isnt long enough to connect to the seat's electric lumbar wire. The lumbar does work as I have tested it with a battery, but I would like them hard wired. Any help would be appreciated!

I would put those on a dedicated circuit. An empty spot in the fuse box will work.

That's weird, my truck has and electric air pump but the lumbar is actually air bladders in the seat back.......

Sorry for the confusion, the seats are manually adjustable with magazine pockets on the back and captain's arm rests, but have an air pump underneath with electric lumbar only and a 3-pin (maybe 4) wire sticking out of the bottom.

Im still not sure what the grey wire behind the seat next to my seatbelt that is connected to another wire there is. Any clue guys?

Could be a belt sensor. I know my '92 doesn't have them, but maybe they made them in some of the mid 90's? Second possibility would be the switch for the door light when it is open or closed.

Well, my truck does have a seatbelt sensor light on the dashboard that lights up when I turn the truck on and try to drive without buckling up. It couldn't be the door sensor though, because it is on the right side of the driver seat, near the belt mount on the floor, which leads me to believe it is for the belt.
