Electric/Convinience Mods

[avluis]

By sure of hands, who here is interested in a few write ups of several convenience modifications, e.g.;

Car Alarm w/ Remote Start (on a Manual) (planning, install - firmware update, etc)
Heated Mirrors w/ Turn Signals (planning, install, etc)
Heated Seats (non-leather, planning, install, etc)
Wireless Smart Phone Charger (planning, install, etc)
Auto Dimming Mirror w/ Homelink (planning, install, etc, plus car alarm trigger mod)


All those are already done on my vehicle so I would have to undo a bit of work for pictures, or simply throw a wall of text at you when I can (I'm good at describing things) while showing you a picture from the manual.
Which is the reason I am asking which ones interest you guys the most so I'll undo that work, improve the install and take pictures along the way.

So, can someone run a poll for me here?

Heated mirrors sounds interesting. Are heated seats possible without leather? It seems no one does that, is that because it's dangerous?

Oh wait, lol, let me add that. I did that as well.

My S has heated cloth seats. You don't see it often because heated seats are usually packaged with leather

Oh Oh, now I'm interested. Love the idea of heated seats but hate leather. I just assumed they had to go together.

Maybe you experienced vinyl seats. Leather seats are great never too cold or hot like vinyl. Warm to your body temp quickly.

Leather can be slippery. They might be only leather on the "facings" (where you sit) and vinyl on the side panels. I know that's the case with the "leather" in my Suzuki XL-7 .

OK, so I take it there is interest on the Heated Seats.
Awesome! But I want to mention that this one actually takes more time to do because of the steps involved, and the weather is not great around here for me to take those things apart again.
So I will put together a collection of videos (from a vehicle or another) that is very similar or the same to ours and note the differences until I can take my seats apart again.
Will that be ok for the moment?

If someone has time on their hands and is already planning on doing this, then I can walk you through all of it as long as you share some pictures with me for posting here. Anyone interested?

While I am a bit busy with work too, I will be listing all the parts that I used for the Heated Seats.
Then when time is available I will be starting the threads for the other installs as well.
So I'll see you guys then~

I'm interested, but I'm also quite lazy, so don't put yourself out.
