my 99 GLE doenst have heated leather seats, but i was wondering how hard is it to add that feature?? the costs and labor time involved.

thanks

 

mmm a leather kit from leatherseats.com without being in a group deal is about 750 or so i think? The heated seat kit is about an extra 100. I would wait for the next group deal. There are many many threads about installing leatherseats.com kits. the heated seat option is very simple to do while youre doing your leather...

shaz

 

but i am assuming you just want to add heat to your existing leather? if thats the case...then its a pain. you have to take off the leather and put the heating elements inside the seat. i was close to getting the heated seat kit from leatherseats.com for $120, but then when i ask the procedure to put them in, it seemed like much more of a hassle than its really worth.

 

leatherseats.com offers heated seats for 100 more??? i always though they only did the upholostry

 

yeah i already have leather in my GLE, but i dont have the seat warmer things... so it is alot of work involved then?/

 

well taking off the existing leather and putting it back on seems like a chore to me.

 

One phrase, PITA.....

 

well i guess il scratch that idea then, oh well

 

Well, I'm assuming that putting the heating element into the seat would just mean removing the leather from the hog rings. That would not be SUCH a huge deal, I guess, if you want the heated seats bad enough... (which I do )

But would the heating element from leatherseats.com connect to the Nissan console switches so it would all look factory?

 

look for a group deal for heated seats...The kit cost about $80 US,
and there is a link on the install...
