I have a couple electrical questions that many of our resident electrical engineers can probably answer off the cuff.
Does anyone know how large a relay it would take to operate a Porsche seat motor? Would a 12vdc / 10 amp relay supply enough amperage?
On Porsche powered seats that are controlled with the switches located on the side, do these DPDT switches operate relays in the seat / motor, or do they switch the power required to operate the seat motor?
I am attempting to bypass the "seat controller" on a set of newer Porsche seats. These questions will help me determine if I need to install relays, what type of relays, or if I need to install new switches.
I am currently looking at the following relay:

As far as wiring, I wire STSP relays all the time but I have not wired a DPDT relay before. Do these relays act similar to DPDT momentary switches?

To make things more complicated, wiring the DPDT relay to a Porsche seat switches might be more fun than I can handle...
