heated seats

Post by shocker »

I heard somewhere that if you have wires underneath your seats that they are for heated seats and all you have to do is hook them up. is this true??

I'm pretty sure that one is a set of wires that connects to the seat tell the car that the seat belts are plugged in.

i THINK what kaveh is trying to say, in his bastardized and perverted use of the english language, :D is that the wires he found under his seat were not factory installed, they were a custom set of heated seat covers that the previous owner had installed and then disconnected for some reason. When kaveh removed the seat to clean his car he found the after market wires, followed them to the switch that the owner had installed and forgotten about, then hooked up the wires and mounted the switch properly. Is this what you were TRYING to say Kaveh?<p>[ April 09, 2003: Message edited by: curtklze ]</p>
