Temjinx2's $20 seat battery drain Fix Revisited

I found my dead battery issue with my 2002 C32 is because of both seat modules. The dealer identified this issue and wants $1,600 to fix it. I said no thanks. I visited Temjinx2's fix for this issue. I think I can figure out how to do this. My question is connecting to the cigarette lighter wiring. Where do you find the Cigarette wire to connect to? Thanks,

There is a much easier way of doing it using wire taps.. I myself used them for both my seats and it worked great..! Its a $5 fix so you can send me the $1,595 via paypal..

Saer1one,
I like your approach better. It is easier and less messy.
Thank you super member.

I followed Saer1one's instructions and was done in 10 minutes (both seat modules). Worked like a charm. Thanks for this info. I recommend it to others with similar battery drain issues.
