Is anyone able to take a pic of the wiring under the rear seat for a late FI super beetle. Everything in mine was cut out, I'm trying to get it back together correctly.

I need to see what is attached to the battery, and the various wiring connections on the drivers side.

Thanks!

Go to technical (top of page) and look at your wiring diagram and match the wires.

I can probably get you a picture a bit later.

Are you talking battery side or driver side?

This is helpful, thanks. Any pics of how the power wires are hooked up to the battery/ignition for the F/I ECU? I have found a brown wire and a red wire from the ECU which I think go to + and - on the battery??

Any other pics of the under seat area of a late fuel injected beetle will be helpful.

There is nothing from the ECU that goes direct to the battery. Use the wiring diagram please so you don't fry your ECU.
