Has anyone removed the 'blank switch'? If so how is it done?
I'd like to drill a hole in it to fit a dummy alarm led I have, then run the wires back behind the dash

I like the idea of the timed heater switch as I always forget to turn it off. My last car had it and was useful. However, can anyone confirm the above post? I have Full Leather in a 99 V5, and would love heated seats, but wouldn't want to go down the route adding in the elements etc. If it was just a switch and maybe the loom, i'd be very interested.
part numbers are:
1m2941503 (01c) - satin black approx £38
1m2941503 (56j) - off black approx £55
according to etka 7.260
anybody know difference in style/type as they are expensive if a mistake is made?
sorry Thev5, can't help. may be worth doing as seperate topic.
[edit]
1m294150356j @ £44.45+VAT
is cost as i found out this morning on visit to vw dealer

i have the full leather... would really like to have the option of heating them...on cold morning the seats are stupidly cold... anyone done this?? any guides??
ok, so managed to squeeze this in today - doddle to do
1. remove stereo
2. T20 torx an undo screws either side it hides
3. carefully pull out dash cover
4. ease the switch out, though it can catch so be careful
5. pull it out then hand under hold the clip and pull switch
6. hold switch push in new one
7. put back together & test

To all you guys asking about leather needing purely a switch to make it work - I dont know from experience however I'd take an educated guess that its highly unlikely seat would fit the heating elements (the expensive bit) and then charge you a tidy sum to fit the switch. If they were going to fit the elements anyway then I think they would just fit the switch too for the sake of a couple of quid.
Doesn't make much sense otherwise does it.

quick update, used it tonight to test, worked a charm
press and stays on for 9mins and then off - no more remembering.
the switch is a little longer in length than that to removed, bit all fits nicely.
