Default Adding Heated Seats?

Title says it all. How difficult is this? Adding heated seats to a car that did not come with them from the factory.

I've never done it, but it doesn't seem too difficult as long as you're ok with the electrical part. Do a search, as there are threads on it. Good luck... If you decide to go ahead with it, please do a write up

I had it done, and it wasn't too difficult for the techs. I would just recommend buying the correct switches/buttons for the interior cabin. I almost forgot about that.

I did it years ago following the Dennis Vogel site. It was not to difficult, there are a couple of differences as his instructions were for a Boxster. I replaced the cushion on my seats like he shows. Still work great but unfortunately the leather on my 20 year old seats is literally disintegrating.
