Makes sense, not sure if the fold down rear step was also mandatory on 7's like mine had.

Yep Pop chances are they are there. Mine was the pov pack and the heated seat plugs were there. Your seats would either need to have had the heating pads installed or you would have to buy them and install. Not sure how you would tell if your seats have had pads already.
..maybe RAVE and look at wiring diagram and see if the heated seat wiring colours can be seen on your seats. When I fitted the HSE seats I had to fit the LR heated seat switches and facia to accommodate the switches and then turn the seats on using the BCU program part of the Nanacom but yours may well be turned on fully already given you have electric leather. I dont recall that there was a heated subvariant in the menu. Cheers. Ps. If you pull up the centre console chances are you will find the wires for the switches.

Ian I thought you meant wires inside the console under the cubby. Interesting. I haven't seen switches inside the cubby. Cheers

Yes, I know. That's why I said "So, SLS...."

Wish I'd kept, and will probably go back if I get round to it.

Yes. Access to the rear "seats". Dunno why it was needed, for in order to use those you would first need to have your legs amputated. Or be three. Mine came out early on and the side bins went in.

Mine has the wiring. Under the window switch panel. They probably all do. Def no pads in the seats though.
