Heated seats replacement thermostats in UK

Rick-sta · 29th May 2014, 18:09

I would like to replace the heated seats thermostats on my new seats before I fit them.

I've been provided a link to where to buy the thermostats from but they're located in China. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1704754536...84.m1439.l2649

As I'm going to be replacing my seats soon, I want to get hold of a set of thermostats earlier so I managed to find some sellers in the UK who sell them. I just wanted to ask whether they're the correct thermostats please?

45 degrees thermostat

Another 45 Degrees thermostat

40 degrees thermostat
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KSD301-NC-...item2ecfd9b101

I think 45 degrees thermostats were the one used in the tutorial on how to change them

Would these be okay in our seats?

Many thanks!

You need a NC (normally closed) thermostat.
Your first link with a UK seller is titled as a NO (normally open) thermostat, but the description suggests it's actually NC.
As you've already ordered, I hope you get the right one.

Thanks for pointing that out

I've ordered from the second link as he was cheaper

and that one says normally closed so hopefully it's the right one

Cheers!
