heated seats in a "S"
Discussion
i can only assume thats for the misses. 
Not in mine....
But I'm sure if an 'S' had heated seats fitted they would have packed up the first sign of cold weather.
Like most things electrical on an 'S' if it is not totally necessary then it stops working or the owner has stripped it from the car.
Where would they have put the buttons anyway??

im beginning to think maybe this is duff information? maybe it was a USA spec? cos i see they did a wash system for the front healights...again not seen this on a uk spec car, but i have got a press picture of one.

Seen the headlamp wash!
We had a visitor to the Mid-Essex meet last month... red S, with headlamp washers... and black door handles and a black fuel filler cap!

I've got the headlight washers on mine - check my profile for a pic. They're not connected mind. Don't think the water pump would powerful enough to drive them anyway - does a shabby enough job on the windscreen !
Hi Guys,
I speced heated seats on my first V8S. Contrary to popular belief they worked very well but were digital....i.e. the thermostat warmed them up until they cooked your ass then switched them off and they cooled down then on again and the cycle started again. Not stable heating a-la Merc or BMW but very useful in winter, with the roof off (is there any other way!!!)with our excuse for a heater. Can't remember where the switch was in the S. Adrian, who now owns my old S, should be able to tell you. On the Chimp it is on the side of the steering column.

I know I haven't got them as there were no wires when I took the seats out last year. Shame really, as they'd be a bonus for the bits of the winter driving when you're moving i.e. when the heater's totally ineffective!

under the dash/steering wheel right hand side
the switch is a round knob type thing
