I don't want to be the voice of doom but if the heating elements are original and untested then I would personally assume they don't work. I see your car doesn't have the switches in place, does that mean it also doesn't have the loom? If the element wires are in place under the seats I'd be tempted to rig a test to see if they're good or not.

This,
I have the buttons, loom and original elements and I have no heat. It's on the to do list. :D

This is going to far.....

You can clearly see that the seats and door trims do not much the carpet and front speakers as they are beige.

The other thing is that the interior is in very good condition and is very attractive with or with out the heated seats and is obvious that it would have to be checked.

I look forward to further comments, questions :-)

I agree with everything you say! My point is if you check them yourself and they're good then you can sell them as working heated seats that just needs loom and switches, the easiest part of a retro-fit. Even if half of them work it will be more attractive to someone wanting to do this conversion as stripping the seat and replacing the element is a laborious, time consuming job. They look like a nice set of seats, just do a test and optimise their value.

Would you sell the front seats separate?

It's 2 pins for the base element and 2 for the back. Stick 12v on them and see what happens.

I have decided not to check the seats.
There is a fine line between seating in my car and waiting for my arse to get hot and having arse on fire...

Would anyone know if these are the same seats for a 325i sport coupe?

No such thing as a sport coupe but they are the same seats that may have been fitted to a sport saloon.

If they didn't have tilting front seats it would be very hard to get into the back seat.

An E30 4 door saloon doesn't miraculously become a coupe when it's a 2 door. On that basis is my missus' 2 door Fiesta a coupe?

Try and keep it on topic please, and why not start another thread about "saloons, coupes" etc ??
