Heated seats - can I add it to my sport seats?

I have 2011 3.5d with no heated seats option (front) and now I think I want to have one, so the big question is how difficult it would be? I have sport multi-contoured seats.

It would be cost prohibitive and very difficult to do OEM, you can do aftermarket from a place like HeatedSeatKits.com - The Future is Warm fairly cheaply and install the heating mats under the seatcover and wire it up.

Thx for the link. I am thinking that combining those kits with oem switches would be the best way to go. If only I could easily buy that oem pannel with seatheat buttons on it. Need to check online etk for the numbers...

The usual questions are about the rear seats, but these threads may provide some background:
