Heated Rear Seats - Has it been done?
Heated Rear Seats - Has it been done?

I had a look on Grumpy ******** 'R' Us aka the LOC but found nothing, and havent seen anything elsewhere on this.
Basically, has anyone converted their rear seats to be heated? Would it just be a case of getting a heated seat setup for the front seats and wiring it into the rear seats? Can anyone tell me what's involved etc
Im a complete novice when it comes to electrics/wiring but I do have a friend who's pretty handy with this kinda thing, so Im sure if I can get some kinda plans/a rough guide between us we could get it done
Look forward to any info you lot have

im sure it has been done mate, but cant remember who it was that did it
You can buy heated seat pads on their own, then its simply a case of stripping the seat covers off( i say simply, its not the easiest of jobs) and fitting them. The wiring on them is very straightforward, you will just need to find a nice place to put the switches

yes i have fitted heated rear seats, all three have a heat unit in them including the armrest, not to hard.

Very quick responses as usual, thanks guys!
Jay, do you have any pics from when you fitted them? or a rough wiring diagram or anything?
Tbh I'd probably end up doing it when I get the interior re-trimmed anyways, but if Im confident me and a friend can do it before then, I'll definitely have a stab at it.
One other question, would the extra heated seats cause any extra load on the battery?
thanks!

I've converted my recaro-a-like seats in the MR2 to be heated. I used a Waeco kit I got from eBay. In fact I think I documented it on here!
