SEAT HEATER KIT
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation
Remove entirely from the vehicle the seat in which the AUTHR2000 will be installed after you
have disconnected the negative battery cable. Make sure your work space is free of debris
or obstructions and remove the outer seat cover from your vehicle’s seat, exposing the foam
padding underneath.
Separate bottom seat cushion from seat back at the seat’s hinge (the point at which it
reclines). Remove and dispose of all upholstery clips and unhook all other connections
using a screwdriver or other tool depending on your particular seat. Make sure there is no
loose metal parts and clean the foam of any debris.
Lay the AUTHR2000 seat heating elements on the bottom seat cushion and on the seat back
to check for placement with the label side facing up. Make sure that there is a minimum of
11” of space between the seat side bolsters, as the heating elements must not be fitted into
any channels running from front to back on the seat. See illustration below for fitment sample.
The electrical supply wires can be fitted into the back so they are not seen in the finished
seat. Fit the heating element into any channels without folding any of the areas covered by
adhesive tape- only the 1” wide textile edge can be folded into lateral (front to back, top
to bottom) channels. Areas with adhesive tape must be adhered to a flat surface. Only the
length is variable and in most cases it is not necessary to cut the heater element.

the seat back, which gets narrow
towards the back. Shown as
