Adding heated elements to rear seats
Has anyone done it or know how to install the pads into the seats? when i say rear i mean the middle set of seats in a 110 CSW looking to add some Waeco heated elements to back and base units.

Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers

Cable routing might be tricky so the don't get damaged when folding?

No help but mine have them built in - haven't wired them up yet though... (very bad photo - but it's a set of L322 seats in there).

It would be tricky but my suggestion would be to, if you could, route the wires through the frame itself - drill a hole at the top and bottom and have fun feeding it through!

Another alternative would be to connectorise them at the seat bases on the floor so if you need to fold them you can simply unplug them. Ed

I bought a couple of kits from ebay and installed them.
Not finished wiring them up externally yet,....or even installing these new puma seats in my TD5 yet, but not too difficult a task. I used zip ties rather than new hog rings to make it simpler.

i retrimmed a few sets of seats of various cars. Small zip ties are so much easier than hog rings!
