sorry for the delay ,but nc weather has been all over the place, did not have a chance to check in hot and cold weather ,now that I have these definitely work ,only had to use them on 1st setting on heat or cool ,prob designed so you can feel through riding wear ,I guess you can say they cost a lot and what doesnt {any one ever bought a complete sissy bar with cushion far a Harley } ,but anything that can give me a lot longer riding time through the year I think for me it was worth the money, I think Polaris does have a high price for it consider its the seat cushions with no hardware, the do set good a lot more comfortable then a stock but does seem to set you a hair closer to steering wheel like I said before I think these are based on the premium seats they sell

so if someone wants heated and cooled seats these will not have an issue doing that

overview

-used rear seat mounting bolts for ground

- made short wiring harness used gm connectors, here are the connectors I used ,just used the male side of connector it was direct plug in on the seat

Amazon.com: Muzzys (Set of TWO) 12-14 AWG Guage 2 Pin Position Terminal Weather Pack WeatherPack Connector Male Female Set Weather Proof: Automotive

-ran through exciting holes under seats

-holes right at back of drive shaft opening right there at battery area

-pulled plastic push pin out behind lower driver seat and used hole to mount relay

-ran switched wire up to the license plate light and used the wire on that

hope this might help someone thinking of doing these, ill give quick review after I have time to check them out

ok got everything wired up and will be up loading pics later ,everything seam to work ,heated seats got pretty warm, have not took a ride yet and cooling came on but hard to test right now lol ,just to recap pretty much direct swap other then wiring ,there was grooved opening in floor each under seat ,ran wires through there and into battery area . I will get the info off the connector that I used it was easy match it was a gm style ,i do think the seats are the premium version seats also has white stitching,

and the last thing I found out and if I read the operational part of the instructions better before install prob would have notice that after it said do not operate with switch accessory position, then it said they will not function at all , prob would have thought that was a function of the newer model having a relay, but no it seems to since voltage, so seats seem not to operate until it senses the voltage it likes , I would ASSUME something anything 13,i still would have ran a relay

sorry about chavey2 that lol came off a lot of searching some stuff for my 70 c10 and finding the same thing , I understand how it happens , plenty of heated seats , I was looking for heated and cooled seats , they few aftermarket that I found that would maybe fit that had cooling option was pushing more then the Polaris plus possible fab. brackets , still did not get a chance to finish ,I have relay mounted everything thing strapped in place wrapped with wire loom, took pics off all should have up in day or so ,Ihave to drop the rear plastic and find a switched wire, it think there is one on pass. side

should have everything going today ,i have everything wired up just have to find switched wire and looks like most connectors are gm found one that plugs right into seats

well I'm glad you didn't say Search, since you know I was searching for the new Polaris oem seats and was not talking about aftermarket, Cheavy2 where did you see aftermarket seats that was cooled and heated that would fit in slingshot, but I do appreciate you stealing the post. Man i'm not trying to be ASS ,but I have been around forums for years and I should know someone can't post something simple like (hay guys I am trying this out ill let know the out come) and then someone comments about ,why you didn't try the search (which I did),why other things that are cheaper and better, Maybe i should chance the title of the post what does everyone think I should do for seats

and this leads me to this now when search for a post like mine that actually did the install and might help someone ,only thing there see in something about cooling pads and back out before seeing anything else and we all now there nothing on cooling pads out there

new to the site, Hello everyone

I did a quick search and could not find any where on here or online that someone has installed Polaris new heated + cooled seats in an older model and I cant blame them for the price ,but if they work they are worth it, I picked up a set and installed them no problem ,mounted right to the original hardware. I am doing the wiring this weekend , I am just going to hook to a relay that only works when key is on and run a fused wire right to battery ,will post out come and prob some pics
