[QUOTE="Brodie, post: 1353250, member: 3372"] John My Bill Mayer seat is heated, and it's been on all three of my FJRs. I used a Heat Troller to regulate the warmth. It's one of the best investments I've made for the bike. The Heat Troller is the one rated for heated grips, and has the remote knob that I mounted on the left dash on the painted portion to the rear of the glove box. The actual controller resides under the seat right next to the FuzeBox. I used a GM WeatherPak connector to the seat pigtail. The Heat Troller is much better than a rheostat because it controls the Heat by regulating the ON time per pulse cycle, not by heating up a variable resister. 15% on time per one second cycle means that approximately 85% of that second there is no power draw. That's much easier on the electrical system and will allow you to allocate the available power to other devices. I seldom run it much higher than 15% because the seat gets plenty warm.
