Ok today i replaced my drivers seat cover as the leather was worn in an area.
Once I pulled the cover off I noticed my car is fitted with heater elements in my seat. I would guess all Olympic and Aspire models have the elements but are not wired in.
Can some one help me tell me what I need to get the seats wired up. There is a plug under seat but that is it. I assume i would need a switch and a wiring loom to the front seats. I know the Evo MR's have heated leather seats so if some one could look and help me please.
Here are some pictures.
Here is the heater element
Here is the plug under the seat that connects to the heater elements. It is the black one on the left that has nothing plugged in.
Thanks in advance.
I am getting old. it would be nice having warm seats in winter.

I've known about this for awhile now.
Just didn't bother as I usually don't bother much about the heated seats.
Switches are mounted in the center arm rest:
Switch is a part:
8610A030 Switch Seat Heater
RRP= A$100+
CCJ = A$85
You can then figure out your own wiring loom or I can ask for a part as well.
So not only Olympic and Aspire.
All those with OEM leather seats will have this.

All I know is that I don't have the third plug, and the switch for the heater element is placed in the centre console in the flat spot just before the lid.

So you need wires to take it from the switch to that plug you photographed.
and
From the switch to your fuse box. I think the wiring loom is behind that blank square panel
Look at Page 8-30 of your owners manual. It's Fuse 25. See if there's a fuse and wiring from there out?

But maybe Troy pull the center console apart and have a look (its only a 5 minute job)
I did that and there was nothing there. The ones I think you are thinking of are for the HID active lights.

Not in line with other switches though. This one is twice the normal switch price. But I suppose there are really 2 switches in this one.

None. There are no wiring parts on the data base.
Need to have a look in an Evo MR. Those guys have this and could shed light on the wiring up.
