Can you show what heaters you plan on using and a basic install guide? That's the one thing I miss about my old tC, the heated leather seats. I definitely plan on upgrading before next winter.

But you can still let us know what you paid for them to give us a ballpark figure, cuz cost and sale price are too far off unless the markup is really high.

we only sell them installed not a boxed item and we do about 40 cars a week so our cost is lower then the average cost thats all i can say without getting into trouble i know its anywhere between 1200-1700 installed

ya it all depends on options if you are a car dealer, consumer, walk in, friend, we only wholesale to the dealers. I do some leather but its not my department.

Oh ok, they deal with katskin on a normal basis so i should be able to get the options im looking for. Also get a deal on the install if not a trade for some car work.

I had a set of Roadwire ( competitor of Katzskin) installed 2 years ago and it was $1200 installed.

I also ordered some material for the doors, shift boot and console top.
