Default Comp Seats ?

Does anyone know if all Competition Seats have both heated and cooled features, or if they were made with or without one or the other? TIA

If the car is 2LT or 3LT (or LZ) they will be heated and cooled just like the standard Seats.

C7 seats are not cooled they are Ventilated. You set the a/c to blow out the floor ducts and the fans in the seats blow cool air thru the holes in the seats.

I have the Competition Seats but in the 1LT variety, which are not heated and cooled. Nevertheless, they are great seats.

1LT comp seats do not have adjustable lumbar support or adjustable upper side bolsters.

I have a 2014 3LT with comp seats and have both but what I really noticed was it's much easier to get in and out of the car. I love the comp seats

Comp seats for some are horrible if your body doesn't fit them. I originally drove in a C7 with them, in a mile those holes were killing my back.. I opted for GT seats.. much better all around seats for some.

My upper back shoulder area hit the holes, very uncomfortable... for my head and neck to hit I'd have to be like 4' 2"
