Cooled seats
does GLS have cooled seats, i have a loaded one don't remember having an option to add in cooled seats. I have the upgraded leather seats not the fake leather. there not drilled or perforated either. Does it exist and mine just doesn't have it or its just not an option for GLS 450? Also does it have apple car play? if so where is the menu to select it?

Option 401: Heated & Ventilated Front Seats
The option is Active Ventilated Seats - not the same thing as "cooled" seats (refrigerated air).
The ventilation prevents the leather from getting "sticky" on you and prevent perspiration buildup on hot days. You can even use the seat heat and ventilation option at the same time - e.g. on cold and rainy days
Also the seat ventilation fans can be real loud on high settings. We have found climate controls in GLS to be annoyingly loud in Auto modes, no matter the season.
