Seat Heating Element Installation IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it. Because this upholstery is held against the padding by Velcro strips, I carefully cut slots in the heating elements so the upholstery wouldn't sag or slide. Because I cut the slots perpendicular to the edge conductors (parallel to the current flow), I didn't interfere with the remaining carbon fibers' heat output. Turns out that using the included tape in the seat base was a mistake - it makes a lot of noise, and with the slots I cut, it's not necessary. I'll probably pull it out one of these days...  .  http://www.fordf150.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=118769&p=772725#p772725The re-assembly of my '83 Bronco is shown in this photo album... |
