Installation Instructions

 
 

1.

Ensure that the vehicle is on a level surface in “Park” & with the hand brake engaged. 

2.

Disconnect the car’s battery or ensure that the work area is well grounded. 

3.

Unplug any wires which may be attached / harnessed to the underside of the vehicle’s seat. Proceed to unbolt 

the seat from the vehicle’s floor. 

4.

Carefully remove the seat out of the vehicle to allow for easier access to the vehicle’s seat & seat cover trim 

“J” clips. 

5.

Carefully remove the seat covers off of the seat by detaching the “J” clips which bind the Backrest Cover 

together. Then, detach the clips which secure the seat bottom seat cover. These clips secure the cover at the base / 

perimeter at the bottom of the seat. 

6.

Place the heating pad & the seat bottom heating pad against the respective backrest & seat bottom. Align the 

heating pads against the seat & “Mark” the listing attachment area to be cut to allow for the re-installation of the 

backrest & Cushion covers.  

7.

If required, carefully cut no more than 2 holes horizontally or 2 holes vertically from each of the seat heater 

pads. The diameter of the each hole should not exceed 1 inch.  

Note: The seat heater pads may also be trimmed in length to accommodate a variety of seating styles & listing 

locations.

Example – If the seat bottom pad length is too long then simply trim the heating pad with a pair of scissors to 

achieve the desired length . 

Do Not: Cut the heating pads widthwise!!!  This will render the seat heater useless and void the warranty. 

8.

Remove the protective backing from the back side of the seat heating pad and carefully adhere the pad to the 

seat at the desired location. 

9.

At this point the holes cut in the pad should align with your identified key listing attachment locations.  

Note: Older style listings = wire rod and listing sleeve (requires hog rings for the installation). Newer 

style  listings  incorporate  Velcro  attachments.  For  older  styles  listings  secure  one  of  the  provided 

strips of adhesive tape around the wire listing rod to insulate it. 

10.

Locate an onboard power source that is able to deliver a continuous 10 Amp current. This source  may be 

located  at  your  accessory  panel,  accessory  outlet,  etc.  Consult  with  the  Owner’s  Vehicle  Manual  to  ensure  an 

appropriate location as a source of power source. 

11.

Once the power source is located extend the wiring harness underneath the carpeting to be able to access this 

power source. (Never install the wire directly under where the occupant’s feet would rest) 

12.

Find a suitable location for your seat heater switches either at the side of the seat, front dash or floor mounted 

center console in between the driver and passenger seats.  

13.

At the desired location drill a 13/16” or 21mm hole and pull the main wiring connector to be attached to the 

seat  heater  switch  harness  connector  through  the  hole.  Attach  the  switch  connector  with  the  main  wiring 

connector and push everything back through the hole and make sure to push the switch snuggly into the hole until 

you hear a “click”.
