    my wife hates my E30, but I always figured I could convert her if I put in heated seat inserts. she's the kind of girl who gets cold and needs a sweater when it's 75 degrees outside.. it just seems like something that she would like!

      We all have woman like that. My Gf refuses to ride with the top down with out putting her hair up, putting on the wind deflector and cranking up the heat.

              I'm very interested too. Wondering how hard the install would be, but seeing how simple E30's are, shouldn't be too bad.

                It's fairly straight forward. I will write up a detailed installation guide to send with the package and one under the DIY section.

                  Good that's like one of the first things I thought of was. How is it supposed to be installed

                      im in the same boat

                      to OP: +1 for people interested in such a kit

                      when you say would work with any seats... would that include comfort vinyl? i have this vision of vinyl melting, maybe thats just me being a noob

                        I would imagine vinyl being fine. My buddy has a 07 jetta with heated vinyl seats and they haven't melted, but then again that car is over 20 years newer.

                          That's one of the reasons I'm prototyping a few sets on different style seats and upholstery before I begin selling these.
