[stu_no_1]

looks to me like i need these parts i got the control module one from that ebay add but on that etka screen this is the same part it says the 2007 car needs
7L0 959 772 D control module
1k0 963 555 G bottom and sides
1k0 963 557 R Backrest

The control module is correct as it was upto the change date, remember you need 2 of them

[stu_no_1]

it says quantity 2 on the etka page does the mean that the part number comes with 2

No, you don't get two, but you need two

[stu_no_1]

[Eddie-NL]

Hi

I would stick with a panel that has ECON. You will still need to make or buy a loom that goes from the seat base to the floor

[stu_no_1]

so where do you buy a loom that goes from the seat to the floor does this not come with the heating elements

No

You will have to find someone who has heated seats and get them to look at their seat wiring loom for a part number or at the VW dealer using a VIN number from a car with heated seats

looks like this

but he doesn't have it listed for heated seats although it has lumber support

[stu_no_1]

ok ill need one that just has the seat heating because i dont have the seat occupied feature like that ebay ad so would i need someones vin number that has leather or heated recaros

[Eddie-NL]

ideally yes, probably a hard one to find. You can always strip the loom of what you don't need

[stu_no_1]

ill just get over on the r32oc there are plenty of cars with recaros in them and my car is an r32 anyway

Just wondering if there's any reason to stay with an ECON panel? I went from an ECON to AC and it seems to be ok?

[stu_no_1]

does the ac button stay lit when the ac is on or is it like the econ one when its lit ac is off
