Isn't this extract from the post what you need

"Again just match live to live and earth to earth. The seat will not work unless you get this right. Pins 4,5 and 8 must have live connections and both earths (3 and 7) must be connected. Again I just cut the cables from the plug and used bullet crimps to connect them."

John, you have a plug on the seat with 8 pins, they are numbered on the back 1 to 8, reading on from this connect your live to pins 4,5 and 8. then connect your negative to pins 3 and 7. this will give you correct movement of the seat. It says in this thread that if these wires are not connected the seat will not move

Failing that trace the two wires that go to the horizontal seat motor, splice in to them with a live and neutral this will move the motor one way and the other
