Is this a heated seat or not (photos)
I am thinking that even though this seat is electric and has armrests, its not heated, even though I didnt think they existed).
Can someone who knows have a look at the photos and let me know?
Cheers

My guess is no, but if they are in your possession undo the four torque screws from underneath holding the base in ( three can clearly be seen in photos 3 and 4) carefully lift it up as if it is heated the cables will still be attached to the base, they enter where your coxis bone is (ass) when you are sat in the seat, there are two cables if heated wrapped in a protective shroud one for the element and one for the seat belt sensor, only one cable if not heated.
There maybe someone along shortly who can confirm by the colour of the plugs.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

This is non memory non heated seat as it is missing heater loom which connects to bottom right corner connector on connection box
also it is missing heater modules which are mainly located to the right from that connector box
and looking closer it also has no adjustable bolsters

mine were never heated and have armrest
added memory and thinking of adding side bolsters for better seating when "cornering"

I just downloaded a 2010 brochure, and everything above the GS had heated seats as standard.
So I dont understand

Yes it my thinking that XS and above had heated leather seats in the UK market... and I think that's the rub - these seats perhaps destined for fairer climes Stolen - D4 Loire Blue

Probably right famous.
I am not toooo bothered, but will probably look out for a heated set.
What annoys me most is the fact that the button lights up ha ha! I like things to work.
