Default ZJ Seat Swap

Looking to swap some ZJ seats I found for sale into my XJ, but the ZJ seats are power seats. My question is; is the wiring for power seats pre wired and in every XJ, or will I have to wire them to work?

Wiring for the power seats is kinda of there.
Pretty sure the ZJ seats won't bolt in though.
Thinking guys swap the ZJ seats to the XJ bases.
If I am right the power ZJ bases do you no good.
Without modding that is.
Putting power/heated XJ seats in my '00 XJ was plug and play.
With all the necessary parts from the donor vehicle.
On the passenger side you most likely will find this:



You would need the rest of the harness, bases, switch, and the silver circuit breaker that goes in the fuse box in the footwell.
Now wiring the ZJ seats if you could figure out how to use the bases?
I don't have a clue.
