I thought so but idk you kind of would think they would have made the warmers also be coolers to somehow. lol Idk, don't mind my randomness haha.

Under the front seats are the vents for the rear passenger footwell. Add some tubing, or heat them up and bend them so they point up at your heiny.

Yeah, I don't need any I was just wondering, also having leather seats in a region that is warn or hot most of the year is the other reason I thought of it.

To be clear... plenty of new vehicles come with both heated and cooled seats although no Subaru's pre 2010 (that I know of) have come with them stock.

I am willing to bet that there is also an aftermarket version somewhere. I think I have seen one that used fans that were set into areas of foam that you had to cut to fit.

I bought a kind of seat cover with fans built in that plugs into the cigarette lighter socket... it's awesome!

Definitely one of my better car-related purchases.

I drove a brand new f-150 the other day (I work at a dealership) that had heated and cooled seats. The cooled seats are a really weird feeling, all it is, is just air from the A/C that is forced through the perforations in the leather. Works well though.

My friend was going on a long trip through some hot weather and his car did not have AC so he build a seat cooler... bought a small 5gal cooler filled it with ice and some water used a small pump and ran 1/4" line from the pump in a crisscross pattern between him and the seat then back to the cooler, work perfect.

I'd actually like to see car makers make seats with mesh, like office chairs do. Probably save some weight too.

My grandmother has an 05 Cadillac sts, each seat had controls for heat and ac and it blows right at your ass crack on a hot day, it's great.
