Retrofiting ventilated seats - dealership

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone here did retrofit ventilated seats to their car. Unfortunately I didn't spec mine with those which I regret.
I saw some aftermarket (and supposedly OEM) kits on eBay, but is it possible to fit those in a dealership or without voiding warranty?


I am from Europe if that's important.

Maybe someone has already done it?

Thanks for any info

Retrofit this option, by original way, you need get leather and Cushion changed and door switch cluster changed, in order to get 100% same result like Original.

In order save money: you need sacrifice the appearing first: you can punch holes manually on your seat leather, which might not look so perfectly. But it works.

And you need sacrifice the airflow perfection: buy using customised foam hole driller and use sticker to controller the airflow.

and you need sacrifice the comfort of your seat cushion as you have to cut two big hole to let the fan to stay under the foam and behind the foam.

The final result is fully controlled by your own hand.

we suggest you buy one set to have a try. See if works nicely.

original leather with ventilation seat is like this one:
