Default Seat Heaters

Hello-

I am getting bombarded with emails, so I thought I would share some background information regarding the Carbon Fiber Seat Heaters for everyone as the newest banner advertiser.

I rec'd an email from ART (REDSC400) last night asking about my banner ad.

here is the reply I gave him about the heaters.

Cobraheat.com all started when I was looking for a heater for my car (FFR with 428PI and Nascar toploader) I have a glove box and lucas wipers, so it really limited me on the what I could do with a heater. I didn't like the looks of the box heater sitting out in the engine compartment, or the vintage air unit up under the dash.

My thought process is that there are far more benefits to having the core of your body warm vs warm air blowing on your feet (with a convertible it is almost uselss)

I started looking for OEM seat heaters, saw some mfg's at SEMA, and picked a brand/style that was an easy installation and universal fit for most cobra type seats, something the average guy could do in an hour or two.

I put a deal together and bought a banner ad on the FFforum and we were off to the races! I also cater to the Miata crowd, and most convertible sports cars enthusiasts AH, Jag, etc.

The Kit includes everything you need for two complete seats (back/bottom heat elements,hi/low control button,inline fuse, etc) and takes about 45 minutes per seat to install.

I have the instructions in a pdf file that I can email anyone that is interested. Let me know if you have any questions?

Thanks- Mike

OK here is my report. THEY WORK GREAT! Conclusion:
The cost and ease of installation are good.
Benefit is better than nothing.
Keeping the wife happier (notice I didn't say happy) is a good thing. My opinion is that they are better than having a heater. The direct heat source feels better to me than the hot air blowing from the heater that mixes with the cold air blowing through the gaps in the footboxes. This is only my opinion, you can formulate your own. The high and low setting is nice, as the high setting does get very very warm.
