I got the Seat Comfort Systems, but the others look good, as well. I installed them myself using my seat covers from Abby at Flightline Interiors. They work great, but the lumbar support pad tends to limit the heat in the seat back. I put the buttons on the console between the seats. The relay for seat heat power is fairly large so I installed it underneath the passenger seat. That way, the quick disconnect plugs for the actual heaters can stay between the tunnel cover and the seat track, where they plug into the wires coming out of the tunnel.

My perception is that we have an excess of cabin heat for most conditions(?). Is it primarily for startup? On for cruise? I assume one would not have the battery power to pre-warm. I've never had a car or anything with heated seats so I just don't know. I'm sure northern ops are more of a challenge. I'm sure my co-pilot would love me forever if her seat was warmed. The temperature issue I need to address is a cold draft from rear to the copilot seat. It seems to be from my unsealed baggage door. Anyone have a good recommendation?

Capen" Subject: Re: RV10-List: Looking for recommendations for heated seats In my case, it was partially to accomodate my wife's back issue (lumbar). She has heated seats in her car which I have grown to appreciate. Additionally, the excess heat is directed at the feet initially. My seat heaters allow me to run the cabin heat at a lower level until the entire cabin is warm while providing immediate comfort to the back/butt area. -----Original Message----- >From: Bill Watson >Sent: Sep 11, 2012 10:05 AM >To: rv10-list@matronics.com >Subject: Re: RV10-List: Looking for recommendations for heated seats > > >What does heated seats do for y'all?

These people were recommended to me based on their prior work. It's especially inexpensive if you get multiple items gang printed. Also make sure you order the premium vinyl with lamination as it reportedly holds up better when exposed to UV and the elements. (includes some notes from my records) Stickers: http://ocsigns.com/decal_calculator.php Prints to "match" Pantone or PMS colors. Suggest Premium Vinyl Adhesive Decals with Lamination. Order Vinyl Letters at the same time to match Sheen & Color Gang print Stars & Bars etc...
