Adding heat elements to seats

Has anyone here added seat heaters to their existing car seats. Without running heat exchangers it seams like a easy way to add some comfort for around $100 and I found some made in the USA. They run 120 watts on a 7 amp fuse which would not strain the electrical system.

I use them in my Hot Rod. Just use them with a relay. Easy, just pull the seat covers and put them in place, fasten them to the foam so they do not move around with use. Very effective heat.

I have been thinking about them for my 951, which I have been known to drive in the winter. Thinkg about these: Seat Heater for Cars and Trucks from HeatedSeatKits.com
