Question Looking for a site to order aftermarket heated seat elements??

I'm looking to spend around $100 for each seat. The only set on ebay have me worried. They state 2 different diamension and take 2 minutes to full heat, seems kinda long. I'm not to concerend on installation because I have re covered leather seats before and have the special tools required. TIA Rob

Here you go

I installed these in my 2002 X5, on the rear seats. Worked very well. $89.95 each

Rob, in my experience, they are as good as the OEM elements. They are only 1 stage, and come with round, led lighted switches. I've got factory rear heated seats in my '05, and these seem just as good.

They heated up pretty quick and could you feel them under the leather?

Yes, they heat very quickly, and work as advertised. IMO, as good as the OEM heaters.
