Ps the interior was salvaged from a T5, may not have been a V70, as far as I can see the black box unit looks exactly the same as the one in the pic, the connecters are the same way around with the grey on the left & green on the right.

Hog rings, a set of hogring pliers and some side cutters(to remove the old hogrings) and everything works again :)

How did you get on with this project, I stumbled onto this myself, the previous owner already swapped everything however decide to cannibalized the underneath and then broke the switches, so I can't replaced, managed to get a complete new seat but now realized no loom to plug it into, any advice greatly appreciated.
