This has been quite a big topic regarding not seeing the option to have heated seats in companion with Marine Grade Vinyl, but Bronco Nation has stated a definite "YES" to that question.

This only applies if the Mid Package or above is selected, of course.

This may be a very big relief for many including myself!

While I had no doubt that the MGV seats would be offered as a heated seat, I'm curious if they all are heated and just missing the circuitry. Hooking up a power wire and switch to the side of the seat would be an easy hack for those wanting heated seats without moving to the Mid Package.

I think you still have to have the mid package to get the heated seats.

Take the top off, instant heating. Its always been that way when adding the Mid Package, but that stupid B&P made a mess of it along with like the rock rails on the BD being an add on and I wont mention the roof rail debacle lol

I'd say that depends on the month and the latitude my friend. :geek:

I can go from 90 to 60 driving not too far during late spring or fall I was just making fun. it was an option we want as our two main vehicles have them specially running around with no top.

The stuff people worry about when it's confirmed on all the B&P pages...geez.
I think the loss of power seat adjustments for the washout feature threw a lot of people for a loop. And since washout floors are exclusive to trims that also have exclusive MGV seats, there's some confusion.

This seems to be saying that heated seats are offered in the mid-package regardless of whether or not your seats have power adjustments.

Sorry didn't mean to sound snarky, but I didn't think there was ever any doubt about that. Power seats are in a different issue than heated seats.

I'm good with this.

Would be nice to also have power as an option but I can understand why they want to avoid that. Once my seat is set, it's not changing as I'll be the only one driving it. My wife has this "thing" about not wanting to drive while I'm a passenger (don't ask) and she has her own car so it will pretty much be a set and forget. Also, the washout interior will be a nice thing to have after getting it nice and dirty.

MGV it is for me.

And before that on the Ford site, pretty sure it was always listed in the mid package.
