I hope the heated seat pads work. To be honest replacing them is the biggest pain in doing a retrofit. My car was wired for heated seats when I swapped in Vaders, had to replace the heater pads in the driver's seat, and the leather looked like sh!t when I swapped it in.

I had to replace the entire foam insert and have it professionally done to look decent. As long as the heaters are fine, the wiring shouldn't be hard.

Nothing close to retrofitting OBC or Cruise Control. I added lumbar support to my seats, should be similar in application.

Someone please help...I know I would need the wiring harness from the seat to the switch to the fuse box. Does anyone know if there are any relays or anything else I should have him pull. I am picking them up on friday so any fast info would really really help and be appreciated.
