I'm installing electric seats in my car. I intend to run a dedicated 12v feed from the battery, with appropriate fuse. Will it be OK to run one 12v to one seat, and then run a wire from the 12v positive on that seat to the passenger seat? Or should I have two separate wires from the battery, with two fuses? I've seen both methods on the Internet and wondered if one was better practice than the other.

Thanks, all.

Thank you. In the model that has the seats as standard they can be adjusted whether or not the key is in the ignition, and I'm happy with that. Does that mean I can do away with the relays and simply wire to the battery for "full time" power?
