The heater for the seat is just some 'electric blanket' coils just under the upholstry. I see no reason why you could not take these parts from a Jetta with heated seats and use them on your Vanagon. Maybe this is another item to add to my Syncro DoKa!

Stan need not reply... ;)

On the Canadian (and presumably European models as well) an option not available in the continental US was heated front seats.

I love heated seats. I'd love to be able to equip my vans with them (or more accurately retrofit my existing seats with the heating elements...if possible.)

I noticed that Larry Chase's newly upholstered seats also have a lumber support ( I think) at least for the drivers side. I presume that was something that Sewfine added.

Any Canadian members with access to heated seats?
