Ive thought about heated leather in my car but I wasn't too sure how/what I would wire them to and what/where I would put the buttons
 
I also have them, best seats I've ever sat in, I got a kufatec loom for 50 odd notes and managed to get switches from Germany for £40, you can get brand new from sere for £35 each or come to think of it phillc is breaking his lcr and I believe he's selling the loom and switches for £70 (I think) also bare in mind that to fit oem switches you will lose the cup holder... Major bummer for me but it was worth it, I paid almost £900 for mine but have seen a couple of sets go for around £700...
 
I could try and find some at a good price and if I don't get on with them sell them on and at least hope to make my money back

For those that have them, how low can you get them to sit with the height adjuster ?

Not to worried about the cup holder as iam always worried about stuff dripping on my tilted double din screen below. I checked phills eBay listing and his doing the loom and switches for £50.

You got any pics of your seats fitted ?

Haven't got any pics but they go really low and yes the switches light up red and once wired into the loom they dim with all the other lights, you will not be disappointed mate, I have 3 door fitted in mine which helps hugely with cleaning.

How much did you get them for??
 
Excellent should look good. How much u pay in the end??

Glad to hear, thanks

I got them for £720 and they got the lumbar support aswell and ill have my current full electric front seats and rare golf mk4 rear black leather seats with pull out armrest to sell, so should make £250ish back on them and there all mint condition.

also collecting the heater loom, switches and the LHD airbag and rear heater switch from Phillc tomorrow to do a proper job of it for £70, so the complete install will be £790

Very nice. I believe they are a better seat than cobra daytona recliners at about 600 odd pond or more new. The konigs are a factory fit too with anti submarine design and sit alot better in the car. Good choice.
