69 442 window/seat Wiring Question

So I'm just finishing up replacing my convertible top switch, that terminates on the power side, at the 40 amp circuit breaker in engine compartment.
QUESTION: looking over the Assembly Manual, it states my seats and windows should be coming off the same firewall power source. Although the Manual has a note on the wiring, so I'm thinking they may have made a change, currently my seats and windows power source is off the ACC key position, (key must be on for windows and seat to work)
Anybody know for sure how the seat and windows were wired from factory.
Key on or key off.
Thanks.

From the firewall the supply cable goes into the left door jamb, where there is a power relay that operates when you turn on the key and supplies voltage to operate your seat and windows...keeps unauthorized personnel from playing with your windows etc...top has power all the time so that when it rains, nosey people such as myself have the ability to raise your top if it should threaten rain and you are not in the immediate vicinity...

Thank You Yellowstatue.
currently the main orange/ black power source is coming off the fuse box to a tee, where it splits to what I would think is the power seat (Orange), and Windows (Orange). I replaced the 40 amp circuit breaker on firewall, and my conv top switch harness.
Nothing other than top orange wire was on the firewall circuit breaker?
Thanks again,
Hope I get his right.
