It's for my wife actually. She uses towels and those little pillows. The Wrangler seats aren't the greatest for her. But yes, heat does help. I'll be doing this install soon hopefully.

checkcorp.com

You will need to call them to MAKE SURE you get the right switches that apply to your kit.

And if you have the flat touch pad buttons that some with your kit. I would highly advise replacing them. The touch pad buttons are NOT waterproof. (Or Armor-All Proof either) I was wiping down my dash and just a tiny bit of Armor-All got inside the switch and that switch never worked again.

I called CheckCorp (they are the heated seat contractor for Chrysler) and they sold me the Heavy Duty switches and the harness that plugs them right into the module. I ave never has a issue with them since.

Neoprene seat covers here and they heat up just fine. I rarely use the med or high setting. That's how hot they get....

Cool, I was wondering if you could still feel them or if they might burn up the seat cover.
