I've had a newsletter from Newton Commercial. They now offer heated version of their seats, and can retrofit the elements to existing recliners. Sounds tempting for the winter, and I might just be taking a trip up to see them.

What a cracking idea! My brothers last two cars have had these, thought I'd had an accident the first time he put it on without telling me :lol:
They are very nice on the cold mornings 8)

For anyone wanting more info, see:

If buying new seats then the price is £65 extra per seat. If retro-fitting then £230 per pair, including heated base and back and all labour. I know what's on my list for Santa :P

Or a pair of Saab 9000 leather heated seats for about £50 with electrical adjustment too. Possibly the comfiest and best made seats you'll get - and easily fitted with subframes from JLH.
