Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

When I got my 04 Targa, one of the options I was looking for was heated seats and my Targa doesn't have them. I have talked to someone who is parting out his 02 Targa tip and it has heated seats. I have searched here to see if anyone has done the switch over from a donor vs buying the Porsche parts and doing in the install. I believe the following parts would be needed for my install 1. Batwing with 4 selector switch style 2. Switches 3. Wiring harness from Batwing to? 4. Heated seat pads with wiring harness And any parts that I might need, these parts have not been sold yet but I wanted to see if anyone else has done this install from donor parts?

POST 2Original post

If you figure this out I would appreciate some feedback I will do the same with my 03 Targa!
