I would say within 10 days, I had order most of the parts some time ago but didn't want to order the Nissan parts (heated seat switch and harness) until I had installed in Jeff's car. I've now ordered 5 sets of switches and harness because that is all they had in stock.

How much was the remote option (I forgot and am lazy to go back through the thread)? Also, is the 10 days for the remote?

i think there is a bit of confusion about what is being lit up. when i press the switch in either direction 'hi' or 'low' lights up. however, the actual 'seat' in the middle, which is illuminated on the actual heated seat switches does not illuminate.

No confusion. The seat light is not connected on the switch. It is the "hi" light that does not come on on the setup with my relays. I have done three with the same results, same type of relay on each.

The first 5 kits based on the Nissan heated seat switch will be available for shipping on June 10th.

The first five users can pre-order here

More kits will be available 1-2 weeks later.

Queston, will your kit still work for the 2009? Noticed it's just labeled 2010. Also I don't have a rear camera. Are you still willing to include one for a little more? Thanks!

Evil Sports · 05-26-2011, 02:12 AM

Am I dumb to think this will work with the 2011/Nav I just got?? Very interested and paypal ready

Based on the wiring diagrams yes it would work.

370Zune · 05-26-2011, 07:24 AM

Placed my order, not sure what order I'm in.
Thanks

The 2009 had the different AV unit, the problem is the connector used on the older unit is 40 pins and unfortunately although the plug is available the socket isn't. The hack is still possible but you would have to cut and splice wires.

I would be happy to help with instructions if you are willing to cut two wires in the back of the AV unit.

Great! I'll be in the next batch as I paid my bills early this month. Sorry.

Just to update everyone on the current status.

The 5 initial kits based on the heated seat switch and the plug and play harness were complete today (as planned). However, rather than ship today I'm going to ship on Monday because I want to complete some further testing with this being the first batch and shipping Sat vs Mon also probably making very little difference on the delivery date.

Once these kits (or at least a couple of them) have been installed successfully I will be ready to offer the next batch which I will offer to non US customers also.

At the same time I want to ship a remote based solution to one lucky member (I think you know who you are) before again offering more widely.
