since I hear that this winter coming will be the winters of all so far winters.... I am looking to implement heated seats... now my question is

1 - can it be done?
2 - I noticed that my fuse box has this slot with a fuse already there, so does this mean that my car is prewired to the seats?
3 - where can I purchase an aftermarket set?
4 - where can I purchase the switches and wiring harness?

any information that is given towards my questions and questions that I did not ask is appreciated.

Thanks fellas...

those need to be put under the actual material (either leather or cloth) and i believe a button is included..

that is ontop of the seat..and is supposed to be plugged into the cigarette lighter...im pretty sure you can take off the material on your seat..and put this type of pad uderneath..also you can take apart the cigarette lighter adapter and wire it to a swtich..and wires the switch to the back of the cigarette lighter (to hide all the wires)

 

go to the group deal section and they should still have the gb on the leatherseats.com and get yourself some custom leather seats with heat

 

i got them. they get really hot. i thikn all they need is 12 volts so any retro fit can be done.

 

side question: I currently have heated seats and have left them on accidently several times and came down in the morning and found a dead battery. Is there a way to wire the seats to only function when the car is on?

 

use a relay to disconnect the power to the heat seats when the ignition is off.

 

anyone done this before/ have pics and or directions?

 

Or connect the power to one that is on only when the ignition is on.

 

Where do I tap in to get the power? How many volts are needed? would this relay work? http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...5Fid=275%2D248

 

the stock heated seats turn off with the car. mine do at least. i leave them on all the time. are you talking about the aftermarket ones?
