I am looking for input on wiring a pair of heated seats. They draw about 5 amps each. Any suggestions on where I should run the power from.

I've been selling these for awhile. There are several different kits you can buy. I think these are the best for a few reasons 1- they are a carbon fiber net that can be trimmed easily to fit. 2-they are self contained requiring no additional parts - relay included, on off switch included. Harness is included 3-They have directions 4- Low current draw 5- They are reasonably priced http://shop.914rubber.com/Seat-heater-asse...m?categoryId=-1 Attached thumbnail(s)  Attached image(s)

I have a center console so I put the on/off buttons in there, and ran my wiring back to the battery directly, and yes they are on their own fuse in back , only draw back is that they are not switched with ignition but, I have a quick release on the battery and usually flip that off anyway. - phil |
