Rear heated seats

Need your help

2-3 weeks ago I installed 4.6is interior onto my X. Today I received delayed shipment with the switches controling front and rear heated seats,
To swap front panel with the switches I didn't need more than 60 seconds, It's PnP. But rear became my nightmare, I'm slowly taking apart center console, I got pretty far already and I can't find wiring for rear heated seats.
Rear seats itself had wiring already ready so wires with plugs for the switches has to be somwhere, Please help me find them,

Should be just under the seat cushion if it's pre-wired. Same in the rear center console.

Seats were pre-wired, bottom and back piece as well but
rear center console has no wires, I took it apart form rear center console all the way to parking brake handle and nothing. My only guess is under carpet but I'm still waiting for your opinions

I saw my pre wired heat terminals under the floor matt tied up to the harness just at the bottom of the back seat. Pull back the carpet and you should see it , if its there.

I checked almost everywhere and no luck, My center console is out, I did find unused cables but harness at the end is different and these cables go all the way to up to the top of the armrest console,
Any more ideas????

Astroboy,

If the front seats are pre-wired, where does the wiring harness pass up into the cushion? I've looked to no avail, as I too would like to add heated seats to my X5.

Additionally, how much was the console switch panel upgrade?

Thanks!

From what I can see in the wiring manual there should be a 5 pin plug up near the rear blower switch. This feeds the switch panel. It's not very clear about the how's or why's!
