Are all 5.5's prewired for heated seats?
I have a 03 Maxima SE w/Black leather, but the car doesn't have the heated seats option...my question is do the seats already have the heater and is missing the switches/relays? Or what?

Yes, you do not have the heating elements in your seats. The car is already prewired so if you change seats (with heating optioned) or add the heating elements, then all you need is the switches. Everything else required is already on your car.

It is a nice feature that you are missing out on lol

Heated seat elements are easy to put in..I do em all the time at work. I've never done a maxima before but I'm sure its not difficult. If you decide to tackle it n have any questions lemme know. But I don't know if these have hog rings but if they do you might wanna invest in a set of hogring pliers. They make the job much easier!
