How easy was it to install the heating pads ?
I guess you had to remove the seat material.
How did you connect the wiring to them and power it up ?
Where did you place the control buttons ?

Got pictures?
can you post where you tapped in to power them.
did they go over or under the airbag seat sensors?

The pads were fairly easy to install. You have to remove some hog ring clips to install them on both the bottom and back rest.
I removed the seat fro the car
On the bottom of the seat, in the front , is a clip that holds the seat cover on. There is also a clip that holds the seat cover on down the sides.
I removed the front clip and the clip down one side.This Gives you enough room to shove the heater into place.
On the back rest you remove the plastic cover/ net. this gives you access to the seat cover clips. You only need to remove the bottom row. The passenger seat had hog rings and the drivers side was a plastic clip. After its removed you can pull the seat cover through to the front of the seat to give you access. Half way up the seat is a seam that has 3 hog rings that have to be removed to give you room for the pad.
I watched this you tube video with basically gives you an idea how to do this




I wired it in under the floor console and ran my wireing harness under the console. The switches I mounted at the bottom of the water fall. I will add a pic later.
For a cheap universal kit that work really good. They get very warm.

I will get some pics later. I went over the air bag sensor. Don brew gave me the info to use fuse #23 under the hood. I hooked it up under the floor console fuse panel for now. This kit gives you power wire, ground, relay switch wire, and illumination wire for the switches. Right now I have everything wired on a fuse that energizes when the car is started. My plan is to wire the relay switch to come on with the remote start so I can have them heat up while the car is warming up.

Thanks for the information, good to know.

Here was the best place i could find to put the heater switches. Any place that looked like a good spot on the waterfall had a mounting point behind it or an obstruction
