Daniel you can trade with Rolf, then there will be one SL fixed.
Joke,
You must unscrew your backcover and loose the backrest for finding the
wire.

I would also be interested in any answers to this question;  My drivers'
seat back heater does not seem to work.

Also interested in anyone's experience with restoring the seat bottom on
the seat.

On Merecedes built in the 70s and 80s it was a common failure for the
seat spring box to break.  However my independent Mercedes-only mechanic
says the problem was resolved in later cars, and he doubts the spring
box is the culprit.  Yet the symptom on my seat is very similar to a
broken seat spring box.
