How long did the install take? Also, I assume the price listed on Nigel is for both seats?

It took a couple hours to complete. Yes, $890 is for both seats. Ordering from Nigel was a pleasure. The seats ship directly from Japan so it took around 3 weeks to arrive. Every bit worth the wait.

Awesome. I just asked Nigel these questions in a private message looks awesome!! How hard was the install I see you did it yourself. Maybe a DIY to help others. Again looks awesome. I to the dash with leather and red stitching someone also did a section where the fake carbon fiber and the radio area with leather and red stitching.
Awesome.

I am going to search the threads for the carbon panel where it was done with the leather and the stitching. Has anyone seen the top dash done with red stitching ?

i was thinking about doing this and adding the heated pad under the cover for my frs. Would the heating pad damage the material?

shouldnt be a problem. The brz material is essentially the same as this and comes with the heaters and also the clazzio kits are sold along with heater kits (which i'll have installed in a week or so) so it shouldnt do any damage to either the stock cloth or the cover

Wonder if it would be worth buying a set of these and storing them for the future.. might be a decent idea if someone is planning on holding onto the car for a loong time.

It is the optional accessories.

The OEM one should not fit like that.

Nigel

These are the ones my girlfriend is going to order from me. Does what do we have to specify in the order ? Can you pm exactley so I make sure I am ordering the right ones. This are the ones are your site for $890.00?

Mrqb22 · 02-17-2013, 11:23 PM

I bought the BRZ switches for the heated seats. Have them already.

Which heating element kits are you guys getting ?

Mrqb22 · 02-17-2013, 11:24 PM

Also I know the air bag sensor on the passenger side of the car is super sensitive where you able to work around that thing?

Surok · 02-17-2013, 11:37 PM

These dont seem to have the toyota T pattern on them|?

I got The Installbay IBHS3 seat heater kit. It has it's own switch attached which provides 10 different levels of heat. Not sure what i'm going to do with the switch yet as it's a little on the big side and i'd rather not cut that large of a hole... might just put a hole in the little storage space next to the stock usb/aux to run the cable through and put the switch in there sideways with some 3m tape. The heaters themselves look pretty good and it's all wired up to the a harness so all i really have to do is tap into the cigarette lighter or seat heater fuse thats already in place and it should be good to go
