OEM-grade heated and cooled front seats retrofit for Land Rover and Jaguar. Add carbon fibre heating and active ventilation with factory-style controls.
Product Overview
LR Retrofit supplies a complete heated and cooled front seats retrofit for Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles. This upgrade adds both carbon fibre heating elements and active ventilation to your front seats. You control the temperature through factory-style switches or the touchscreen climate menu. The system warms you quickly in winter and actively cools you in summer, delivering year-round comfort.
We use OEM-grade components that fit invisibly under the original seat covers. The heating pads deliver even warmth, while the ventilation fans draw air through perforated channels to cool the seat surface. The result is a factory appearance and a genuine climate control upgrade for both driver and passenger.
Key Features
- Carbon fibre heating elements for seat base and backrest
- Active ventilation with dual axial fans per seat
- Three-level heating and three-level cooling control
- Factory-style switches or touchscreen integration
- Automatic thermal protection for safe operation
- Whisper-quiet fan operation below 35 dB
- Plug-and-play wiring with vehicle-specific connectors
- No permanent modification to seat covers or foam
The system provides independent heating and cooling for each front seat. You select the mode and intensity with a simple press of the switch. The heating reaches full temperature within two minutes. The cooling fans begin drawing air immediately, creating a noticeable cooling effect on hot days.
Performance Benefits
Heated and cooled front seats transform your driving comfort in all seasons. You no longer endure cold leather on winter mornings or sticky heat in summer traffic. The three-level control lets you find the perfect setting. You notice less fatigue on long journeys because your body maintains a stable temperature. The system runs quietly and efficiently, drawing minimal power from the vehicle electrical system.

Vehicles must have standard front seats with removable covers. LR Retrofit confirms exact compatibility from your VIN before dispatch. Models with memory seats or existing ventilated seat wiring may require additional coding, which we include in the kit.
Installation and Coding Support
We recommend professional installation. LR Retrofit supplies the complete hardware kit with heating pads, ventilation fans, wiring looms, and switch panel. Our technical team provides remote coding support through JLR diagnostic tools. You update the Car Configuration File to activate the heated and cooled seat function. This enables touchscreen climate control where available.
The installation follows the factory method. You place the heating elements onto the seat foam and mount the ventilation fans into the seat base and backrest channels. The wiring routes along the original seat harness. All connectors use factory pin-outs. No cutting or splicing of the vehicle harness is necessary.
Technical Note
The heated and cooled front seats system uses a dedicated control module that communicates over the JLR seat CAN bus where supported. The module reads the switch inputs and drives the heating pads and ventilation fans through solid-state relays. The thermal cut-off protects against overheating. LR Retrofit supplies the correct control module parameters for your model. The system operates independently of the rear seat climate functions.
