Heated Steering Wheel retro fit?
Not sure if this has been covered here, but is it possible to upgrade a non-heated steering wheel to heated? I assume it requires a new steering wheel, but also new switch pack with the heated option, but does it also need a CCF update? Appreciate any help here as hands are freezing ! Defender 23.5MY, D250 X-Dynamic

I'd really like to be able to retrofit this too!

I really wanted the heated steering wheel but when I specced the car I was told it was only available with the cold climate package which came with the heated front windscreen. I loathe this because of the filaments that run through the screen which I found enormously distracting when I had a RR curtesy car with it fitted.

Any alternate solutions, apart from gloves? Very Happy Current: MY22 P400e SE

You will need a heated steering wheel (obviously Laughing ) a switch pack, a wiring harness and a ccf edit to tell the car it is fitted Thumbs Up Cheers Ian

I didn’t realise you could get a defender without the heated windscreen

Ive never noticed the elements and had heated screens since they came out in 300tdi disco days.

Best invention ever Mike

^^ I would second that without hesitation. I don't think I would buy a vehicle which didn't or couldn't have a heated screen now.
