Default just bought an 08 ELEMENT SC

So i got my first brand new car. 2008 ELEMENT SC it is nice.The only thing i wish it has that it doesn't is HEATED LEATHER SEATS. Has anyone put an after market leather kit in an element? What brand did you use? any pictures? Katskins is supposed to be getting back to me on what they have.

Im semi interested in voiding my warranty with a bolt on turbo kit . Is there anything out there worth buying yet?

I thought the point was so you could clean it up easily...oh well to each his own, just find an upholstery shop and have them do it for you. They should be able to add a heating element and then you'll just have to add the switch and run the wiring.

i work at honda and got a good deal. I like the element more than the RDX . i kinda wish it didnt have the carpet and had the rubber mat floor like the lower models . Ive put 100 miles on it and its pretty cool so far about 20 mpg wich im sure will get better when its broken in.

Roomate moved out with no notice so with 400 a month less i might just leave the seats how they are. mine has the black tribal designs instead of the orange like the 2007 .
