arse and back, closer to the bottom of the base and back bit, takes about 2 minuites until its nice and toasty. I think they have a regulator to stop it getting too hot.

Arse gets hot quicker - can make you think the back's not working at first.

I think I read somewhere that the elements on each seat are wired in series, so if one's dead neither work.

Isn't that going to be a nightmare to wire up though? Bad enough sorting out the wiring for the elctric adjustment.

In which case, maybe the simplest solution if you want the "heated seat experience" is to drive after drinking 3 pints of water...
