el Camino New Exhaust
zhlédnutí 307Před 2 měsíci
Victor at Quality Muffler in Olympia, WA (THE Go To guy for exhaust!) finished putting in the new exhaust system. Looks and sounds great! 3" compression bend system, with X-Pipe, Street Max mufflers and flared joints above the axle to enable removing the middle section if the tranny ever needs to be dropped. Nice work! The audio on my camcorder doesn't really do it justice. It sounds deeper and...

Do you know what wires/colors are for passenger seat CAN H AND CAN L
High is always some version of green
@@TheDeanjenkins thank you for the quick response much appreciated
Beautiful!
A piece at a time man, nice progress! Getting these custom panels mocked and stood up is an art form. Keep on rolling, they are going to be nice 👍
Thanks! Will do!
Nice! Good progress, Mr Jenkins. I have wanted to try something like this, I will be creating a console first. Keep em coming sir!
A little confusing because my wires are different colors but the concept is the same/ appears to work fine.
What year are your seats I'm trying to wire 2014 m6 into a 1994 E150
@@juanchao8122 2009 bmw 135i coral seats
@@juanchao8122 I looked up the seat wire diagram, all you need is high and low comp wire and the red and black wires. The colors vary
Incredible.
Beautiful work- thanks for sharing sir!
I have a '68 El Camino also, man I'm glad I found your channel- top notch stuff sir!
Thanks! Hopefully you find something helpful. Post up pics or videos of your car.
Dean doing the very same makeover on my 84 SS, except using some M4 G82 door skins, you just beat me to it😉. I am still working on my center console. Your work has been Top Shelf on your Camino, and very creative, so I am excited to see how this phase of your journey walks out. As I have encountered a thousand times over the years of doing custom restomod work, you get it all worked out on one side and then reproduce what you did on the other side. Like you, I am going to graft in as much of the doner panel as possible. Appreciate your taking the time to video your journey, working alone primarily makes it a challenge to do much more that snap pictures of the progress. Having a GoPro and CZcams have have definitely changed all that. Rock On man!😎
Thanks! Post up a few pics of your project. It would be great to see.
Great work on everything so far, I can't wait to see how these panels turn out.
You and me both!
Nice job I wish this was something mass produced or purchase able
This video made me really happy to watch thank you for posting your progress😊
Zip tie guns are available in 25Lb, 50lb, and maybe higher strength.
Nice Work man! Really nice trim Work for your build Dean. A+ 😊
Thanks! 👍
They work really great for installing bicycle tires!
I'll bet they do work well for that. Great idea!
Yeah, they're super helpful. Its the little things that make a difference 😊
Got a set to work on the kids cars. Love them.
Thank you for sharing. Question: are you running your power constant (battery power)? Do you have any amp draw? I was thinking of hooking the can bus (voltage step down) to ignition power and the main power to battery to let the seat go to sleep. then wake up with ignition on. Not cause any amp draw while car is resting for a period of time. Thoughts?
I hooked up the seat power (which I tied the Can Bus power to) and the seat heater power to a relay that is energized when the ignition is turned on. I used this Relay/Fuse box and it worked really well. amzn.to/3w8kJL2
@@TheDeanjenkins Does your driver seat have memory?
No. Pretty sure memory settings are stored in main body computer, not the seat controller.
Great project well executed. For what it is worth one of your statements in the video rung a bell in my own head. I use the Pferd .030 cutting disks exclusively. The thinner kerf greatly reduces the sparks and accumulated hot metal bits on your arm, and I have found that I can cut within thousandths on one side of a scribe line with no guide clamped in place. Just my $.02.
So cool. Happy for you Dean.
Very very nice!
Awesome! Congrats, sir!
YES!!!! 😎👍
How about showing the wiring of the seat in detail
do ya have to fool the passenger seat too?
No. Passenger seat has a simpler control module. I think the drivers seat is more complicated because of the memory setting.
Good morning Dean, Where did you find the printouts on google? i have a couple of E90 BMW seats I want to install in my 1971 VW Bus. You didn't mention where you got the electronics to keep the computer happy. Your vidwo has been the best one i've seen. Thanks
I purchased the wiring diagram for the specific car my seats came out of from portal-diagnostov.com/en/
In the description of this video I have descriptions and links to all the parts I used
Really lookin nice, sir!
Hello, can I move the mechanism of the seats of a right-hand drive vehicle to the left?
Moving the mechanisms would be a big deal and I'm not even sure if it is possible. But, the only difference between the two seats is the memory function, which I'm pretty sure doesn't work in this application. So, just install the seats: drivers on the left, passenger on the right and it should work fine.
Would you mind putting the links to the diagrams you used in the note section, Please?

Looking good!😎👍
So the controller will shut off the seat movement functionality after 5-10 minutes? Or is that just for the heat functionality ?
The controller will definitely shut off the seat movement, not sure about the heaters, didn't test that.
Beautiful🇿🇦great job
Very cool 💪🇿🇦
You only need an inline fuse on the red wire I assume?
EVERY circuit needs a fuse on the hot side. Seat power, heaters, logic. All.
Gotcha, thanks for the reply. I just want the power movement functionality so I will just need that inline fuse for the red wire? Ground wires dont require fuses correct? Sorry im a noob when it comes to electrical. @@TheDeanjenkins Thanks a bunch for this video too it makes it super easy. Is there a 12v power adapter you'd recommend to power this thing via a power outlet? I will be using it for a driving simulation rig.
Got it. This should work. You need at least 30 amps. 12v Power Supply 33.3A 400W Universal Regulated Switching Power Supply Transformer Adapter, Switch AC 110V/220V to DC 12V 33.3Amp Switching LED Driver for LED Light Strip, Security System, 3D Printer a.co/d/ewywqIu
@@TheDeanjenkins thank you I appreciate it. You think 400w is minimum? Or these are more reliable than those cheap 12v power supplies?
Pay attention to Amps. Seat Power is a 30 Amp circuit
Beautiful elco but i do love the vent window
congrats on the progress! Wiring is such a challenge and you've made some cool upgrades
Thanks!

Thank you. Lot of work and learning. . .
Beautiful 👏🏾 work my guy! Just beautiful
Hey Sir! Nice job on your project. Do you hace an idea on how to connect or making work a g01 seat that does not have the module in the driver seat?
Coming along beautifully. You’ve really inspired me on mine!
Awesome! Thank you! This is year 4 of the project. It's been fun, mostly . . . :)
Kudos for your relentless pursuit of QA. Well executed.
Really nice 👍 which power lock kit did you go with?
Thank you! This is the best explained video I've seen on this. I'm putting e92 seat in my Mercedes Sprinter Van.
Thanks. Please post an update when you get it done.
Will do!@@TheDeanjenkins
Hi Dean How can I get in touch with you about BMW seat wiring. I'm putting 2009 sport seats in a 1969 roadrunner. I see your parts list but I need the wiring schematics. Thank you very much
I got my schematics at portal-diagnostov.com/en/ It was helpful, but truthfully, all I really needed was the BMW wiring conventions that are posted in responses here.
I finished it, Thanks they work perfectly.@@TheDeanjenkins
This is incredible ! Great job sir
Received the Step down and Square Wave Generator you gave links to. It's easy to miss the Volts in/Gnd/ Signal Out labeling for the pins. On your video it looked like Volts in was the far left pin, but on the Square Wave Generator I received it's actually the far right pin. Middle pin Ground, left pin signal out. Once I got it right it works perfectly. Thanks again for posting your video..
Just saw this now. Sounds like you got it working. Good job!
Did you get the little plastic boxes I linked to (or similar) to package up the electronics? Makes a nice neat install.
@@TheDeanjenkins I ended up getting slightly taller plastic box as the Step Down Generator was, for what ever reason, too tall for the boxes you used. Finished the install today and everything is working great thanks in large part to your video. Thanks again.
@@jonhosea3135 Great! Glad I could help in some way.
excellent job looks incredible
What are the color codes for the seat back and bottom heating pads, drivers and passenger side? Understood you bypassed the BMW computer and applying +12V and ground directly to them.
I don't remember the exact colors. But the wires are easy to locate. On each seat they are plugged into the control modules and have two connectors on each seat (seat back, seat base elements are separate.) The connectors have two wires each and they follow the general BMW color scheme. Brown, with any color stripe, is always ground. I traced the wires to the actual heater elements to confirm they were correct. Having a wiring diagram will give you the exact colors. Then just wired the +12V and grounds in parallel and connected to a relay.
The wires are Green and Brown with the Green wire to the seat backs having a stripe.
