I wish I had the Canadian ones. Thinking of putting seat warmers in my RSX seats, but it doesn't even get too cold here, I'm just a puss.

SRS wire harnesses usually have Yellow connectors. If you could find a 2001-2005 Acura EL premium heated seat harness, it might be an easy hookup. Do not know if Atlantic Acura would be willing to give you a schematic, worst they can say is no.

I have the same problem. I want to connect the seat heaters, but I'm not sure which connectors.

The driver's seat has 1 grey connector with 2 prongs (a green wire and a brown one). I'm guessing that this is the connector for the DS seat heater? If so, do you know whcih of these wires is +/-?

Also, the passenger-side has 2 grey connectors: 1 has 2 prongs (just like the dirver's), but the other has 4 prongs. I think one of those connectors would be for the OPDS module, but I'm not sure which connector, though (would it be the one with 4 prongs or the one with 2 prongs)?

Any help is much appreciated!!
