This one in Gilbert was the shit, was almost brand new when I was there

Comfort is definitely worth the price

His young, uninjured back hasn't taught him that

 

that's one lesson that sucks to learn the hard way

 

Absolutely it does

Enjoy that shit while you've got full mobility that's for sure

 

If I stretched my budget to new seat prices, I'd lean towards new partouts like some heated/ventilated Lexus RC seats (not these red though)

Would be a fun year long project to get them wired right I'm sure

 

I put in ~2013 Avalon seats, 18 way driver seat heated and cooled in, the downside is the side bolstering is a little too wide for me really..

 

Now we're talkin
Were the functions as "easy" as a ignition-on 12V supply for seat, and then separate individually switched 12V supplies for heat/vents?

 

kinda.

the heat and vent are some kinda PWM or other variable control signal, but do switch on with straight 12V for 100% duty which I assume shortens their life some amount... the heat will trip thermal protection switch after being on for 30 mins, but I typically turn it off before that as it is quite warm. the fan I just let run and haven't encountered any issues.

I guess I could test 5v/9v to see if that makes it work differently, but they are already wired as on/off.

I know some of the newest stuff is CAN, but the gen I have is not.

 

also I ran 3 separate circuits per seat per the OEM diagram, 25a for the seat position, 10a for each heat and cool, 10a for lumbar iirc

 

Damn so 6 total circuits for both front seats?
I think I'd have to add another accessory fuse block lol

That CAN issue would probably mean any newer lexus seats would be way too much trouble to make work

 

I asked people ik, no takers. Was trying to sell it for him so i can keep the bed rack lol

 

A lot of the CAN stuff is for the memory and touchscreen integrations but as long as there is still a button on the seat will function just fine without. PWM stuff on the other hand could pose an issue if you wire it straight and it can't take 100% DC haha

 

So that must be the burning the truck down issue lol

 

Don't blame you

If we weren't in a dispersed area when we all went camping, he could've been charged for 2-3 spots; thing is huge

 

Glad they got Pearl Jam playing in the lobby, drowns out hearing my kid yell at the dentist

(He's got a dentist appointment right now)

 

Y tho, them teeth all gonna fall out in a few years, its the next set you gotta take care of

 

Get him accustomed to a stranger with gloves sticking their fingers or metal tools in his mouth while they say "GOOD" or "BAD" based on our hygiene practices with him

It's more of a "getting him used to it" thing

It's his third visit so far and he's been calmer each time fortunately

Next stop, this arcade/pizza place

*Definitely makes you rethink vehicle decisions. (At least ones you'll have long hours in.)

 

Ouch, is it really bad?

I'm sorry cause that shit brings a lot of pain. It's disabling, literally.

 

I left one seat wired up in the garage to see what would happen, it popped the thermal switch before the fuse
