Heated seats, question...
I heard a rumor about heated seats.
I have no idea as to the validity of this claim.
Is it true that all the 996s are prewired for heated seats and even have the heater elements in the seats?
If this were true, it seems that getting the seats to function would be relatively simple.
It this true?

I dont know about 996's, but i do know that a lot of car companies do this, for example, my sons '02 Land Rover SE is prewired for heated seats. So i would not be suprised if this is true. When ever i have a question about a Porsche, i usually call Park Place Porsche or Champion Porsche, these two dealers never fail to give me the real answere. Although i did not answere your question directly, I hope this helps.

In the first year production of the 996, numerous hackers found the coils WERE in the bottom cushions, and with a few hours fishing around with a good wiring harness, were able to hook up the bottom seat heaters. You'd have to add the seatback cushion with heated wiring to get it 100%, but no one has come back to say whether or not Porsche got news of this and then stopped the practice.

Hey AutoNut. I think you've proved your point. It is time to let it go.
I hear that if you push a button in the glove box of my 996tt, my seats will turn into GT3 seats.

While I may not always agree with his opinions, he has offered some useful information in a few threads I have started. You are just wasting bandwidth. I would think a 31 year old man would have something better to do with his time, then have some kind of infatuation with exposing someone who pretended to act older, whom you have never met.

JarodL... not only is he 31, but he was just married two months ago. You would think that he should spend some time with his new wife, instead of wasting it badgering and stalking me.
