    I'm curious as to how this should be done if I were to get leather clazzio seats and also wanted to put in heated seats aftermarket using this kit...

    Dorman 628-040 Universal Seat Heater Kit:Amazon:Automotive

    Should I install the heater under the cloth like its supposed to be installed or in between the cloth and the leather? I suspect under the cloth is the right way to do it, but would that then effect the amount of heat that you would feel because of the added layer of clazzio covers? Has anyone done this?

    You should contact Rodney (Hawaiian Built) on the forum. He is a Clazzio rep and should be able to answer all your questions regarding the seat covers. By the way, I have them on my car and they are very high quality and you wont be disappointed.

    Do you have any pictures of what they look like in the V and what they cost you (if you don't mind me asking)? I was planning to get the V to replace my mom's minivan and get her the base V since she doesn't need or want all the extra stuff besides leather seats to keep the car cleaner.

    Thanks in advance!

    Unfortunately I dont have any pictures but if you go to Clazzio site you can see a bunch of pictures of how they look in other cars and the pictures are true to form for the v as well. Everyone who has seen them in my car never guessed they were seat covers and thought they were OEM. Cost will depend on what material, colors, two tone, etc you choose. Expect the base set up to cost around $500 which is very reasonable for the quality and fit of the product. I have been very satisfied and I am very picky about what I put in or on my cars. If you decided to get them and need pointers on installation let me know. Good luck. By the way, I am in San Diego as well.

    Oh! Will do! Waiting for my mom to decide if she really wants the V first and then I'll go buy it before the end of the year. Then I'll order the Clazzio covers and turn signal mirrors as well. I'll message you if I need help. Thanks again for the info! See you around!
