Default heated seats

so I found some seat heaters http://corbeau.com/products/accessories/seat_heaters/#
I have a sipper on the side so I can easily install them on the top part of my seat but I have no idea how to install them on the bottom part of the seat it doesn't have a zipper thing how would I put them in?

Hog rings and hog ring pliers time.I'd guess remove the seat,remove the lower seat cover and insert the heating pad between the cover and foam.Reassemble in reverse order (using the hog rings/pliers) and enjoy the "bun warmers".Hook it up electrically with the appropriate inline fuse and rated switch.

You'll love 'em once you get them in. Worth the effort.

Never thought I'd want heated seats until I had them.

Go for both top and bottom for the full effect. You'll be glad you did.

Hog rings aren't that bad to do.
