Tom - Is the plug for the seat warmers buried deep inside the dash? I removed the heater control and the radio, but did not see a plug that I could use. What else do I need to remove to locate the plug? Thanks for your help.

I believe it is one of the existing plugs, there will be a spare hole in the new climate control, maybe for rear a/c?

How hot should front seats get? Mine only get a little warm and in one spot on each

Yes the current controller has three holes, the new one has four. however, there is no extra plugs that I can find and I have rear air. Mine is an SE. Guess I should have looked before I purchased the controller. Oh Well... Such is life...

Tom - took your advice, plugged it in and the lights came on, seats did not appear to get warm. Stop by local garage and had them to check to see if the seat warmers was turned on in the body control module and if not turn it on. They stated that they never did that before, but they did find codes that the left and right seat temperature sensor inoperable. BlackBox Nanocom Evolution is suppose to be able to do what I ask them to do - Just trying to justify spending $500 for one. And I agree that all seats come with warmers installed. When buying a used seat - the only option is cloth or leather, memory or no memory. (Didn't know any came with cloth seats)

I also was not aware they came with cloth

Mine do not get hot like the d1 just enough to take the chill off the leather but at the front stitch seam which seems weird, might have to ask my dealer tech about running his computer on it

I know the rover knows I added the rear airbags

The only differences I see on the se drivers seat and the hse drivers seat , use has 3 memory? And a additional power movement on the seat bottom

I would just swap the front seats but I would need to change the leather covers as the use ones are not nice

Finally got the factory off road light harness removed from my 06 and installed in the 05, hardest part was removing the wire from the green connector under the pass side dash, button on dash illuminates, push it with headlights on and the indicator lights so guess they work, 10*f here so not pulling the cloth covers to check, guessing they would rip


In spring definitely pulling the bumper to add the driving/fog lights since they are plug play and I already swapped the needed headlight switch

Unseenone sent me the directions huge thanks, could not have done without them

In normal (light) clothes, they should get noticeably HOT. To the point of minor discomfort.
