I have two black motorized front seats. how easy is it to install them and hook up the motors. would this require just running a couple of lines to the battery and then two the seats. or do i need to get a fuse board and other components?
I have the seats the rails and the motors. Just have to install them...
Thanks In Advance

Fusing is critical for something like this. See if you can find out what kind of car they came from, and locate wiring diagrams to see how they should be fused. With that said, as long as you can physically fit them in, you should be fine.

I'm not sure about your particular model, but BMW usually makes their stuff fairly modular. E30 sunroofs and cruise control come to mind...the wiring harnesses are added depending on those options and are pretty easy to swap from car to car.
You might be able to score a wiring harness that's plug & play. Wiring from the battery would work too, but do a quick calc on wattage for the right gauge & fuse.
