Default Need help with wiring issues

I have purchased a used HD sunray heated seat that was missing the seat connector wiring. Does anyone know if I can purchase a new connector and if so, is there a trick to removing the switch on the side of the seat? I tried to pry it off, but it wouldn't budge. I've searched extensively for a diagram showing this process with no luck. There is also no part number with Harley on this connector that I can find. Can anyone help? Thanks

You can go to any auto shop & buy a male/female connector & wire the set to your bike & seat. As long as they go together & polarity is correct, your good to go.

Default Seat photos

I'm having problems with my computer uploading my photos right now. The seat is pictured in the HD 2012 parts catalog on page 347, seat part #52633-08A, (C). The original wiring in the seat is completely missing and this is why I need to take the switch off in order to connect new wires. Does anyone know if there are hidden screws or bolts that will require taking the seat cover off of the seat to access it? Thanks for your help
