Is it possible to retro-fit heated seats??

[WhiteGTI]

As above??  

I know that I can't buy it as a pre-set package from a dealer, but I'm just wondering if the parts can be bought, and if it can be installed into the stock seats easily?????

[SteveP]

Yes, you need this - Clicky
plus the elements to go into the seats.

 Do you feel the need to be in the hot seat??   

[WhiteGTI]

Ahh nice one!

I'll pop down to a dealer at some point to see how much the elements are etc.

Muchos gracias!

Do you feel the need to be in the hot seat??   

Yes I do! 

Had heated seats in my previous two cars and I miss them so much!

Sure thing chap!

Also how does it work with the switch? i.e. normally the switch is by the heater controls? Or does this kit have its own switch located elsewhere?

Will this just heat the seat base, or the backrest too?

I really want heated seats too, but I was under the impression you needed a seat ECU as well as a heated seats climatronic unit and the associated wires.  If all you need is this an a climatronic unit, I'm going to do it!  I had heated leathers in an old car and I really miss them.

Let me know how you get on too, please
