Black Interior Swap Seat Harness Issue

Hi Thread,

I recently did a interior swap on my car including carpet, certain trim pieces n most importantly a good set of black back seats and a black driver seat, the only real fault is that my 08 TL has 3 harness connectors and the seat I got only has 2, I did some research and first thought it was heated seating function and i wasn’t to bothered on losing it cause i don’t use it anyways, but come to find out I have an SRS light on the dash n the missing harness was to the airbag module. Has anyone encountered this issue, if so how did you fix it, is there a spare harness adapter you can buy or certain way to wire it to one of the already existing harnesses?

Thanks for your time, any advice n ideas help.

Nah no clue i would assume older bc of the bottom look of the seat but i have no clue, I came here hoping sumn might have seen the bottom side of there’s n maybe we can identify the year n trim, but my original with the 3 connectors is 07-08 100% i didnt think the years from 05-08 would change anything in the seats but clearly
im wrong

1) So, you 'sourced' these interior components from a salvage yard or an on-line sale, of sorts, and there was no specific data on the donor vehicle other than it was a 3GTL??
2) Just to clarify, you need to find corresponding connectors for (one or both?) red arrow and the green arrow terminals?

If the donor seat is in the picture, it's from 2004 since it only has two sections on the bottom. I believe from 2005 and up they went to three sections.
