Dave is right. Find a good leather/auto top place in your area. I had all the perforated leather sections replaced with gray perforated leather on the seats AND the door panels, + seat heaters for under $600

Frankly, i had never done anything like this before and it took me about 2 hours per seat. It is not hard. You need patience, and the right tools (read the instructions many times! You don't want to screw it up!). Also, it helps if there are two people when putting the hog rings back in.

Otherwise, make a 9/16" hole (i think its that size... but check your seat heater instruction for the diameter of the switch) and install it under the storage compartment. I hooked it up to the power outlet under the storage compartment (there is one swithc on each side of it) as this has current while the car is on and none when the car is off (so you don't drain the battery). Besides that... make a small hole in the carpet under each seat and run the the wires from under the seat to the switch via the hole in the carpet.

Trust me, you'll be extremely happy that you did it yourself when you take the car out for your first spin and you see that the seats are warm as hell!!

If you need guidance, you can always msg me
