Just throwing this out there

I dont post on here much, but I use it quite frequently as I am a Cobalt owner. I just wanted to throw this out there to you guys.. I am an installer at a local shop(Tacoma Area). I do after-market heated seats and leather 5 days a week at a busy shop. We mainly do dealership cars. I am currently trying to start my own side business. Soooooo, I'm willing to do heated seats for $350.. which is 150 lower than any other decent shop in the area. And if youre interested in leather let me know and we can work something out.. this deal is good for any vehicle, not just cobalts. I have pics of some of the stuff I have done if you're interested. thanks

I wish I lived up by ya, I got family in the Olympia and Port Orchard areas. Any ways, which type of kit would I need to use on micro suede seats, a leather kit or a cloth kit as those are the only two types I have seen for sale.

I dont know if I understand the question.. what I do is remove your stock cloth or leather and replace it with the leather combo, color, perferated, etc, of your choice.. they fit like factory leather would right down to the airbag ties.. its not a seat cover

oh my bad.. its been a long day. It does not matter if you have suede, leather, or cloth. We install these heated seat kits in everything with no issues. I get this question a lot tho.. people think its crazy that you can add heated seats to cloth. They are a carbon fiber woven pad that is thin and flexible; unlike the "wired" elements that you see on ebay. The install the guy did for his heated seats in the "how to" section of this site uses a very similiar kit to what I would use

I could take a look at it if ya want. No guarantees I can make it work again because its a stock setup and I don't know those inside and out like the ones I install everyday. Just let me know..weekends are best for me
