You`d need to strip down the seats and then fit the heater elements, then build it all back up and then make a wiring loom.

Not impossible by any means, just difficult.

Another good link there, think i'm going to try to do it slight easier way, will fit all wirring first, then remove the hog rings from the rear of seat and try to slide the heating pads in that way, if it does not work i will have strip seat down, i've bought Impreza heated switches already, so just need to order kit now, will post when done, won't be for a month yet as doing other things on the car.
