Hi all,

I have the heated seat but I've not installed it on my 2020 RS. A bit afeared of running foul of the canbus. Any overall advice? I did read of someone tapping into the GPS loom. Would love it if someone had some detail, to include photos. 

Thanks in advance!

Overall advice - Use a Healtech Thunderbox. Connect it to your battery and then all accessories to it. Works great on my Tiger.

My Sargent seat is also heated and I haven't installed the heater function yet. Partly because I wasn't sure about wiring it in and partly because I rarely ride in temps where I need a heated seat.

Here in Houston I use my heated seat more than I use the heated grips, it’s that nice. Of course I’m referring to the Tiger.

The Fuzeblocks FZ-1 is a good alternative. That's what I have on my RT.

Thanks.

This article talks about using the HEX exCAN (which I do have), but it also says that the installation instructions for the seats don't support that. Any cons to tapping into a turn signal vis-a-vis canbus? I hate to lose my rear taillights for the seat, but I'm also not wild about major wiring issues.
