Heated seats?

Do we have heated seats (WRX)? I can't find anything in my manual and I've never even heard it advertised, but my seat gets really hot, and I see wires conected to it. I can't find a fuse labeled heated seats. I've wondered about this for a while, and never gotten an answer from the dealer. (almost as if they didn't know)

Maybe I'm just really hot:banana:

The heated seat switches are beside the E-brake handle if you have them.
If the dealer you are talking about is in Huntington WV, They aren't the brightest people working there.

Well, I've asked them, and I asked one in Va Beach while I was still out there. No one seemed to know. You're right! Those guys aren't too bright, but they've been friendly at least. The Va Beach dealer screwed me, and the Barborsville dealer made it right. That was before they went under new ownership though. I haven't really dealt with them since they were bought out.

I don't have the switches, but what's the explenation for the wiring then? Is it already there incase you decide to pay for the option? That way they just have to add the switches? I've heard of dealers doin that.

The wiring is for the belt buckle sensor (for the abs and the annoying flashing light) and I also believe that the WRX seats have side impact air bags in them.
