DAMNIT!! my car doesn't have the plugsss...

anyone FELT their seats actually get warm? you owe me $50

 

Here are pics of the harnesses I exposed on my 2003 sedan 5AT (Sport, Premium equipped). Obviously, these are the correct plugs. I took a part the lower driver's side cushion to see if I could see the heating element which should be between the seat cover and foam. Unfortunately, the seat cover is attached to the foam with metal wire and hog rings, but clearly there was a difference in the material used at the front of the cushion near your thighs and the rear of the cushion where your butt sits and where the element should be located. The observed material that I believe is the element had some green webbing and a much thicker material attachment point to the metal wire. Hopefully the material I was seeing was the element edge.

 

i thought i didnt have it either, but it was tucked under that huge plug you were talking about.

 

i know there is a diy to remove the center console somewhere on the forum, will someone please link me really fast?

 

Dave, thanks for the pics. Does that help me? Yes, I can see that the harness coming from the dash is the exact same thickness as mine. I know that they make this plug adapter. They have to. If I was to go to Infiniti and say, "Hey, I want to pay for you to add heated seats to my car", well, what do you think they would say? Um, no? No, they'd put them in. And I'm sure they would have an adaptar at that point.

Dave, can you tell me what color the wires are in those two plugs and can you also give me a location in which they fall in the plug?

I appreciate you taking the time to take your center out.

 

Here. If you have a 6mt, grab hold of the trim surrounding the shift boot and pull up. It is held in with just clips. Once that is free, turn it on its side. There will be 8 little screws. Remove those. That will free the trim from the boot. Now, look back at the center console towards the front. You will see 2 screws. Remove those. Make sure your emergency brake is pulled all the way up. Now, get the back seat. Move your two front seats as far forward as they will go. Look on the side of the center console. You will see 1 screw on each side. Remove those. Now gently pull up on the center console by placing your fingers under the console by the carpet. This should free it.

If you have a automatic. Sorry, I don't and I don't know how to do those.

 

UPdate: The 03.5 6mt are all missing the sub-harness. It is a small harness that goes from the large plug to the heated switches. I got a hold of the PDF files showing that part. So that is good news for us. If someone finds a way to order this sub-harness, please post it here. The PDF specifically said that the subharness is for the 6mt's only. The auto's don't have the subharness as the original harness goes straight to 2 plugs not one large plug like the 6mt's.


THERE IS STILL HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

that sucks, I guess they expected the 6mt owners to not want the heated seats as much as the 5at owners or something back in 03. I do hope you find this part, however, tony from riverside infiniti posted a couple pages back about this complete harness being very expensive ad they are not sold seprately.....i sure hope you can find someway some how....

 

I installed today, i have a HEATED drivers seat the other one just lights up.

it gets toasty real quick ,when i first turned them on i smelled plastic type smell cooking and viola ! heated seat.

i dontcar for the pasenger since i am the pilot!

 

are your passenger seats power or not? what year, and package do you havE?

 

Thanks for the pics.. actually i only took out the first center console. You know the one piece that you take off after you take off the shift ****.
This friday, I will take off everything so I can really pull the carpet back...
