Cold leather seats: 987 Gen 2

[911hillclimber]

My wife misses the seat warmers of our old BMW Z4...
Our 987/Gen2 does not have them, but sure has cold leather seats!
Thought about for the winter a simple seat cover that is a fabric and close fitting to kill-the-chill.

Anyone had the same issue and found a solution please.?

There is a Company which sells and fits heated seat kits as when looking for our Boxster that was a definite prequisite and just in case the right car came along but didn't have just the seats I searched around a bit, have a squint.

Thanks for the speedy reply.
I was really looking for some simple fabric temporary covers just for the odd winter runs out.

Any other ideas/suppliers please?
I can't be the only one with this issue?

Best covers for warmth would be a pair of sheepskin over covers, as in every 70's RR........Spiffing eh what?

I'd vote for retrofit heated seats too. Heats you up rather than insulating you from the cold

Failing that wear more clothes

Lidl are doing a nice line in Ski wear this week !! Come on you softies we still wear kilts up here in the winter
Have had various cars inc Porsches all without heated seats never had an issue

I'm ok, just the wife isn't!
Seeing this of the car this morning she said her back-side looked like that on the cold seat...
