Who has heated seats?
If you do, would you post pics of where the switches are located?
I assume it is in the center console some where. If it is I would like to find a repacement piece for my wifes car. I am having Recaros that are heated put in her car, and her stock ones are not. So I need a switch location and factory would be the best. TIA Rob.

Heated Seats
I HATE heated seats. One of the reasons I bought this particular car.
Sat in a friends car with heated seats and almost jumped through the roof when he started it up. Thought for sure I had burned my a$$.
It just doesn't get that cold here in Seattle to need those.

I know my wife has used the seat heaters a few times on the few really cold days we get. I'll be wishing my car had heated seats come those cold January morning drives to work.

My wife likes them. She misses the one in the Jeep.(not her daily driver anymore) As I said I am already having Recaros put in. I would like some help if any is available to find that stock panel with switches in it. That way I don't have to fabricate/cut anything to make them work.

I was wondering about something like that. Thanks for the input.

Have to be careful. If you type 'SLK', you will get SLK 320, but not SLK320. Use 'SLK*', which means slk + anything or nothing, or 'slk (230,320)'. which means slk as one word plus either 230 or 320 as another word. It is not case-sensitive. If you get too many items, you can exclude some by using -.
