Default Heated Seats

I have a 2004 roadster touring model. Not sure how hot the front seats are supposed to get. Mine do not seem to get very warm. There is a 2 way switch and in the warmest position the seats get luke warm, is that correct or should they be warm. thanks

did you test/compare your drivers seat to the passenger seat?
try that and if there is a diffrence than get it checked out.

yup mine gets plenty hot, how hot are you expecting? best bet is to try another Z at the dealer and see if it gets hotter.

if not, time to wear thinner pants or something, cause they get quite toasty.

If you put the switch foward, that is the HIGH position in my 2003 (Refer to your manual). The seats aren't supposed to get REAL hot. In the high postion, after about 60 secs, you will feel the seat get pretty warm, then it will cycle on and off like a thermostat. Like ares said though, try rocking some spandex or richard simmons pre-workout shorts next time to get the full-effect....

Better yet, just drive without pants.

Mine are pretty warm. Nice in the fall, you can still drive with your windows open.

Talking Seat Heater

Dude...what do you want???

Chestnuts roasting over an open fire???

My Touring Roadster seats get nice and toasty. They also cycle on and off to protect their circuits from overheating. There's nothing better than cruising with the top down on a cool night with the seat heaters on.

Like "Roark" said earlier, who wants SWAMPASS???

If I put charcoal briquets on my seats do you think that might help conduct more heat? Truth is they get nice and hot for about the first ten minutes and then they dont feel like much.
