Okay, so I'm looking for some aftermarket heated seats for the SVX.
Summit has a cheap
$100/seat kit... but they have a cheap-o mechanical switch for controlling 'em, and the heater pads are wire. I need something that will work with my remote-start so I can trigger the seats when the car starts. Also there's a company that uses a carbon-fiber mesh pad that can be cut to fit the seat, and heats more evenly than the wire pads.
So... enter
Carbotex comfort seat heaters. They use that dope CF element... yet, they too have a generic mechanical switch, though the switch controls a relay, which means I can probably get the remote-start to work with 'em.
What I really want is the control system used by
Check Seat Heaters. They've got a lighted momentary switch that commands a control unit with a timer, thermostat, etc.
But here's the big problem...
no one sells these damn things! You'd think a google search for "seat heaters" would return a 100 places to order from, but just about every place sells only to installers. And the few installers that resell the kits require you to call or fax them to order... I know pretty much what I want (the Carbotex kit), all I wanna do is order it online w/o having to deal on the phone while I should be busy at work.
