can you use a dimmer switch for the heated part...doesit run 12v and just limits the current?

You only need to put 12v to the plug under the seat. Pick up a 12v supply with a GOOD THICK wire supply.

In Xantias models with NO sunroofs the plug for the Electric sunroof is still there, so I picked up a live from there.

As for 306's, Im not sure where you would pick the power up from but make sure the supply to the seats is a good think wire.

The switch;s on the seats reverse the supply to to the motors to move them back or forth. Follow the wires from the main connecting plug under the seat and work out which two goto the switchs and apply a + and a - to one of each terminal.
