    possible to add heating AND cooling to seats?

    I know you can add heating pads for aftermarket seats that install under the leather, but have you seen any pads that cool also?

    possible, yes.
    though not very effective with the oem leather seats we have. you need a fabric that has little holes in it, or is breathable.

    Something like this stripped and mounted under your oem seat cushions will do the trick: http://www.smarthome.com/91713.html

    Dunno wtf you would want seats that cool. They never really get that hot. If they do get some tint and put your top up when your parked.

    I have limo tint all the way around, tinted front window. blacked out car, and blacked out interior.

    black leathers still get VERY hot in the summer.

    in a convertible with black leather, they get hot, and not only that, but it prevents you from the embarassing sweaty shirts in the summer, and allows you to keep your air conditioner set to a lower level, improving gas mileage and performance
