was really simple tho tbf, just two wires to connect up under the carpet under both the seats, then push in the heated seat buttons and your done
i even went all out and used solder and heated shrink stuff aswell and plugs to make the seats remove'able
but yea it does look nice

vauxhall ordered the wrong part so not sure if i ended up paying for the wrong part or what
they might even give it me since as iv they'v been mucking me about for going on two week trying to get this part

small update, thought i'd put up a photo of my sound system, all be it a photocopy of the one out of my previous corsa but its basically exactly the same, but i have now mounted the amp on top of the sub box instead of down the side, and it sits right up to the back of the corsa, because of the rear strut brace that is behind it which acts on stopping it sliding back into the back of the seat. and i have also bought a new amp all be it not a large one but i am hoping to mount it along side the infinity amp ontop of the sub box so i can wire it up to power my 6x9s, then i'l have two spare outputs from my radio which i might use somewhere else dont know where yet
but i'l find somewhere
my sub setup
the new amp i bought of mattyb on here, its an upgrade of what comes out of my radio and it powers my 6x9s alot cleaner and clearer. so hopefully it will do the job, iv got a spare amp wiring kit, so i'l have to run a new power cable in, and then i can install another earth, and link both of the small blue wires together on both amps to automatically turn them on and off, and i have an output on my infinity amp to power another amp so hopefully i can just use this output to power the input for the new amp. but yea should look alright to be honest, i'l have to get some photos of it layed out sometime this next week as i have a few days off.
