How effective are the cooled seats?
I have a theory about the seats working for some and not for others. Could it be the product used on the seats is clogging the ventilation holes? I use a product made by Armour all called Leather Care Gel that I apply about 2 times a year. Smells nice and my seats show almost no wear at 136,000 miles but is it possible that it has caused my seat ventilation to be impaired. The seat heaters seem to work fine, but the cooling is almost gone. What do people that still have effective cooling use? anything? nothing? just an idea.
I figured I'd pull my seats since I have the car torn apart right now and check out what is going on with the cooled seats. Wow. The passenger side filter is filthy.
Can you clean these filters or do they need to be replaced? Are they a special Lexus party or can I get them at Napa or some other auto part store?

You might be able to just stick your hand under the seat and remove them by feel.
Put the power seat in its highest setting. Then move the seat all the way forward. There is ample room to snap the filter off.
The clips for the filter are on the left/right housing rather than the front/back of housing.
