Heated steering wheel
« on: 13 January 2024, 01:08:02 PM »
Driving my Aero recently too and from work, and the steering wheel has been very cold to my already cold fingers!!!! Whilst the car warms up quite quickly (and always has done - so did my 9-5 LPT years ago), I don't have the luxury of heated seats.

Although I can cope with that, but I was wondering if a heated steering wheel was ever offered on the 9-3ss, and whether such a thing can be retro fitted to a 56 reg pre facelift car?

Perhaps that was the original reason for driving gloves...

Easier to fit too

Sorry, but I don't know anything about the heated steering wheels

I keep seeing adverts for heated seat covers - not sure if they are any good - I think Halford stock them - might be worth a look..
