C7 Seat Conversion - Full Function Ventilation & Heat
Though I did injure my back this year and it keeps coming back with vengeance and immobilizing me for a time.
I have all this time and money in my Z06 build and realize I may now require two things: a more finely articulated range of seat placement, and a heated pad for my back.
The C7 seats offer that and I'm looking to pick up a set. C8s also offer it but their styling is too far removed from the C5 appearance and era and simply don't look right in the car to my eye so I have skipped past them.
Of note: the C7 Comp seats look to have heavily influenced the C8 GT2 mid-range seats with only simple visual differences.
Having read a number of conversion threads, I am posting because I did not yet see the full answer as to how to enable both Ventilation (a great option in the summer!) and Heat.
I do not have to worry about a telescopic wheel so that is one headache skipped.
Wiring for basic power and ground is no worry.
What are the pinouts for Heat & Vent?
Do they require a canbus controller?
If so, what's the trick for that?
Or can I not wire them up directly to a switch?
Can they retain the 3 setting stages or would they be all or nothing?
Here is a picture example of a C7 Comp upper and a C7 GT upper. A notable upgrade in quality from the A4s while still hopefully providing support through turns.
All black is a safe bet, but these Kalahari covers would add some style to an otherwise all-black interior such as mine.
I tried ordering the four covers for the front seat feet but the order was nixxed today with the parts being unavailable. I had used part numbers for Brownstone pieces since that is what I found on here. Perhaps normal black still exist if I can find them. Otherwise, a scrap yard ought to.
