I Have a 99 Silverado and 00 Sub both with heated seat.
Is there anyway to have the heated seats turn on automaticaly when the car turns on. I have remote start installed and would love to have toasty seat as well as a warm engine. Any Ideas? They arent simple on of switches. they are push button with a hi and low setting and reset once the car turns off.
Also i want to be able to disable this feature for the summer months.
Hasnt been a problem untill now considering i live in Southern Cali. But i am moving up to salt lake city in january is why i ask?

What if you pulled the switch out for the seats and checked which ones go live when you switch the seats on. Then you could just wire a switch in over those contacts and make sure you close that circuit when you get out of the car. IE Install a switch.
The other thing you could do is just wire the seats with a switch of your own. I'm sure it's just a 12 volt source and all you'd have to do is flick a switch to make them come on. Just find a switched 12 volt source and "hot wire" the seats to that switch and maybe use a relay. Then when you started your car your seats would come on as well.
Just a thought... :D
