Default Heated Seats....

A couple questions.

1. Does anyone know a way to boost the heater in the seat warmers?
2. Does anyone know a way to boost the breezer in the seat ventalators?

3. Anyone put in rear seat warmers? Tips on where to find them, how the controls look/where they mount.

Need more power !!!!!! I would think you will need a bigger heating coil and a bigger blower for the cooling, and you might want to leave the rear seat heating to a professional.

Yea, the seat warmers are a little on the cold side for me especially in really cold weather, and for some reason the passenger seat warmer is weaker than my drivers seat....

Agree, cooler could have been a little more powerful. Guys, keep in mind overheating your b*lls is not a good idea Lexus does think about customers

In other cars, if your little guy is too hot , you can always turn it down. In a Lexus, if your little guy is too cold, you cannot turn it up since its already max.
