The symbols are there behind a blank, were only fitted in colder countrys.

Just wondering what's needed to wire these up?
I've got a couple of extra heated screen switches so I could use those and I've also the foam parts from the heated seats from a cav, but what fuse would need to be wired in?

Also has anyone actually had a go at wiring them into a MK1, besides Opel?

When there on they make you feel as if you've pissed yourself - Why would you want that ?

Cool touch and something too tell folk about though :)

I assume you'll have to strip the seat base and cut the foam to fit the seat heat pad?

Well worth it though. :)

How are they done in the cav? I've the original heated seat buttons but there mk2 style, does anyone that the heated screen buttons would be okay then?

This is something I've been planning on doing for ages, it should be ideal for this time of year. By the time I get round to it it'll be summer though lol

cav wiring is feed for the swiches is from the cigarete lighter on a 20amp fuse, switch illumination from grey/green to the other dash illuminaton earth the switches and the heater pad earth goes back to the battery earth bolt under the bonnet and the live at the pad goes to the switch simples.
