How effective are the heated seats? The heated steering wheel?

    My wife likes seat heaters, but I've never had any use for them. Every body part touching the seat is in winter clothes, and needs no heat. It's my exposed flesh that needs it!

    I use the heated seats in Pearl S (GIII) and they are very effective at reducing the need for cabin heat. Still use cabin heat but for the 5 min. or so before it kicks in the heated seats make the car comfortable in winter cloths (no shivering). ;) Wish Pearl S had a heated steering wheel. It's hard to operate those tiny switches with bulky gloves on.
