They are good. Mine are underneath Clazzio covers which are a little thick, so it takes time to heat up. Under the factory leather they should heat up faster. Nice quality kit.

Good stuff man, thats awesome, Im sooo looking forward to doing this. I got all the hog rings, and the pliers, Im ready to do this damn thing. Dude you shoulda took pics of custom mod placement of the buttons.

m4a1mustang · 02-06-2013, 12:18 PM

Good luck with it, man.

Crappy pic but you can see the buttons on either side of the 12v.

It calls for a 20mm drill bit but the only thing I had was a 19mm hole saw. So I used that and a round file.

BTW, door cards are out right now... being shipped off for upholstery.

eastwest2300 · 02-06-2013, 12:27 PM

I like it! excellent job man!

In my case it was $80 for the heating kit and $299 for my new seat covers.

eastwest2300 · 02-07-2013, 08:52 AM

It wasnt much. Less than $80 for the heat sensors, and Im doing the install. Last night I removed the leather from the seats, and today the sensors should come via UPS.

I wonder if a base model Z has the wiring already ran for a Touring seat conversion, or if I'd have to run and make taps myself. Anyone know any info about this as for next winter heated seats would be nice.

From what I've seen other members do, there is already a wiring harness to plug in the Touring seats if you swap them out from a Base.

And I'm guessing the Airbag sensors would just be unplug/plug in as well too??

Hmmm...
