seat heat pads
i'm trying to fix a couple of things on my drivers seat base. specifically, the heat pad is dead and there is a tear in the stitching.
i didn't realize the pads from my old seats would be different and i'm trying to think outside the box a little...
i'm wondering...
could i just put in a wal-mart type heat pad, the ones you plug into the lighter and just wire it into the existing setup?
when i test the heatpads i just use a portable battery pack and they heat up like normal. i don't see the difference and redoing the wiring would be easy enough. i dunno this is going to be another pita i can see so i would rather put in something new than the pads from my old 20 year old seats or $4lt i'd dig out of a scrapyard. it would make a rear seat retrofit easier too...
i put my old drivers seat base for now so i can spend some time on this... wow screwing with the seats is a billion times easier when you take the backs off first!
not such a great deal on the seats...
