Another thing I've been focused on lately is with the wiring and electronics. As I'm trying to determine where things like the door locks and window controls go, I also have to make some decision on the heated and cooled seat controllers.

You will notice in the one picture of the HVAC unit out of the Escalade that the controller for each seat is built into the module itself. I have no desire to try to transplant that ugly thing so I needed a couple of standalone controllers that would work. The only problem is that I couldn't find standalone controllers within any GM platform from 2008 - 2013 (needed this for compatibility reasons to put it simply)

While doing some research, I found where another guy was using controllers out of a 2014ish Silverado platform. Those are shown below.
