Default paging quattrofrog Auszug - seat warmer question

Mr Becker! :P

I read on a recent post that you were trying to rig the seat warmers on your ride. Well, I had to get a new seat cushion for my driver side and ended up getting one with a warmer pad in it by accident. Now - of course - I want to turn it on! How hard is it to rig it on a car without heated seats?

Default They arent that complex, but they arent too simple either.

Basically you are sending current through a fine wire and it heats up. I havent gotten round to checking the resistance of the wire in the seats yet.

If you want heated seats, then just get the heated seat switches which are probably expensive, and run the wires to just below the seats.

Actually hooking them up will be a bit of a trick, but if you have the determination to do it, you should be able to do it.

Come the cooler months I'll be adding heating elements to the racing seats, then I'll have heated, power adjustable racing seats.
