I bought a carbon fiber 3 way seat heating kit, the place I got mine was amazon but no longer available. I'm sure you may have local people who convert heated seats though.

I'll have to look into it. I want to get the center piece that has the cup holders from the monogram series because it has the switches for heated seats on it. Socwould look oem with aftermarket heat system

lol
My switches look oem and I like my placement, down is low flush is off up toggle is high. Look bottom left of my seat plastic. Firm and snug. I use left hand and passenger has same on their right side. You don't need scion to tell you what looks good.

I was trying to find the switch before reading where it was haha, it looks good there too. Keeps it looking clean and not too many buttons in one spot. And 200 isn't a bad price for heated seats to me. First though is finding an adaptor to use aftermarket lugs on my stock wheels since I like them and want to roll on them for a while but starting to see too many 2014s in my area

I suggest a set of wheel locks, keeps honest people honest. Tires aren't cheap nor are rims.

The stock rims are about $550 each. But you can get a set of 4 on ebay for $500.

500 is 500, I don't like the idea of someone setting me back a dollar let alone rims and wheels stock or not.
Lol I am a stickler with cash.

I am too that's why I'm not painting the lug nuts, another set, plus paints will run me close enough to just want aftermarket lugs so I'll have them when I have new rims and wheel locks

That's why I included the second, not to mislead about the height haha. I would love to roll that low but I'd need airbags to deal with the streets here.
