When I swapped my heated leather into a 2010 ss/tc and swapped the tc seats into my 08 2.4 the ss/tc didnt have the harness for the heaters. Everything swapped over otherwise. But I believe he had to add an aftermarket harness to get the seats working. So yes the harness would be added. We didnt check behind the radio/dash but the plugs under the seats were not there.

just wanted to update this,
seats swapped over fine, but there was no harness behind the dash, so im gonna have to make my own with the stock buttons. shouldnt be too hard

how'd it go? I just added stock heated seat (KA1) wiring to mine a few weeks ago. I ripped out the entire harnesses from the donor car (body and dash). I got the harnesses from a salvage yard. They charged me bulk price for the harnesses. I spent $20. When I got home, I pulled the heated seat circuit wiring from both harnesses, re-wrapped them and ran them along my existing harness. It took several hours to do. I had to completely disassemble the dash and interior, insert wiring into the BCM, pass a power lead through the firewall and into the under hood fuse block and repin the dash/body harness mating connectors at each end of the dash. It was a PITA but I do enjoy the heated seats! Aftermarket would have been easier but I like doing things as the factory would have done them. If you already have the harness under your seats, you're halfway there!

I bought my car brand new from the dealership. had 12 miles on it. only option it didn't have was heated seats. I told them can you add the heated seat option and just add the price on to the loan, I don't care... they said no it involved too much work..... they must have known, or were just too stupid lol. Either way I wish I had done it over the 7 years ive owned this car
