Anyone had any experience of any retro seat heating options?

Most say don't try to make it OEM unless you're (a) very precise at DIY (b) have time on your hands. If you're desperate there are overmats that sit on seats and plug into the 12V outlet.

It can be done. What car is it?

I've done it on an E46 and it was fairly straightforward. Newer cars need things coding though which is a PITA.

I've completed fitting heated electric memory seats from an M3 into my touring (E46)

Not a hard task all in all. BMW even sell the heated loom wiring complete as a set for about £40ish.

You're welcome to email me if you need more info/the links I used for my conversion.
