Heated Seats wiring help
I installed heating element in both front seats. I am looking for a way to wire it up. Did anybody wire their heated seats directly to the fuse box?
If so can you give me some pointers or pics.
Thanks

Haven't heard heated seats mentioned on the boards for a few months.
I think people tapped the left lighter plug. I also think the Mopar kit comes prewired to install a plug to the back of the left lighter plug.
If you want to go straight to the fuse box you will have to drill a hole in the side of it or find the connector in the bottom and add a wire there. The M8 location is labeled as "Heated Seat" and isn't used on the JK.

If you go to the write-ups forum you'll see a few different takes on the install.
