    Seat Heaters

    I'm just sorting out the interior panals/seat on my roadster project and i would like to fit Heated seats, Anybody know how they are wired ??? i'm presuming they must have some kind of control box so that they switch off before overheating ??? Not sure whether to get some from a scrap Volvo etc or go for an aftermarket kit ???

    I used to have a 51 plate Rover 45 that had heated seats, may be narrower than the Volvo!!!

    Used a camping roll as the first layer on the Special seating with the ali foil facing outwards. It reflects all your body heat back and nothing to fuse or break.

    I had been looking as i`m going to struggle to get a heater fitted with the bulk head moved back so far, One of my mates suggested seat heaters as a way of getting some heat in the cab

    They look pretty simply to fit Steve and not to bulky.
