I recently bought some black leather seats from a junk yard front and back for 350.00 but the only probelm is they are power seats is their a cord or something that I can hook up to these seats. My car is a 91 with manual seats and these seats are 92.

There is "supposed" to be a connector underneath the seats for it, but my GXE didn't have one either when I put my 300ZX seats in. the service manual shows one on the harness on the 93s, whether they have power seats or not. I pulled up the carpet and couldn't find it at all, so I just made my own.

what I did was pull the fuse panel out and splice a wire (12 awg) into the defrost line after the fuse... that way it's still fuse protected, and you're not overloading something that's already got power on it.
Reason I used the defroster circuit is that you're not likely going to use both the power seats and defroster at the same time.. get in the car, adjust your seats, THEN turn on the defrost. I doubt if the fuse will blow even if you do use both at the same time, but this way you don't have to worry about it at all.

then just pull up the carpet along the front door sill and run the wire along there, then tuck it behind the frame rails under the carpet going across the seat. there's a hole in the carpet already where you can poke it through for a nice, clean install.
