I have a 2001 S40. I do not have power seats, but I do have wires going up into the padding of both the driver and front passenger seats.
Do these cars come pre-wired from the factory for heated seats? If I bought the dash switches for the heated seats would the connectors already be in the dash for an easy connection?
thanks, Ed
Normally, a standard wiring harness isfactory-installed in all cars. It simplifies production. When I bought my 2000 S40, it didn't have fog lights, and I had them installed without paying for new wiring.
Not so much the occupant weight, but the presense of an occupant, no point in firing the airbag if nobody's in the seat.
Thanks for all your input. I do not have power seats, but it could be for the air bags. Didn't think of that. I will have to check a littile more into it.

That and the seatbelt reminders. Even if the car is prewired, it won't have wires running right up into the seat, but rather unused pins or connectors where any seat related wiring plugs in under the carpet.
