LR-Retrofit supplies and installs the genuine Heated Steering Wheel for compatible Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles. You gain instant warmth through the steering wheel rim on cold mornings. Our team fits the factory heated wheel, installs the correct switch, and activates the system using JLR diagnostic equipment.
What Is a Heated Steering Wheel?
A Heated Steering Wheel contains an integrated heating element within the rim. The element warms the leather surface quickly and evenly. You activate the function with a dedicated switch, and the system maintains a comfortable temperature automatically. This feature proves especially valuable in winter conditions and for drivers with cold hands.
The heated rim connects to the vehicle’s steering column module and body control system. The system monitors temperature and adjusts power delivery to prevent overheating. The result is a safe, factory-level heating performance without any aftermarket modifications.
How the Retrofit Works
We begin with a full vehicle diagnostic scan. This confirms your current steering wheel configuration, steering column module, clock spring, and software version. If your vehicle supports the upgrade, we proceed with the genuine installation.
Our technicians remove the standard steering wheel and fit the heated version with the correct clock spring and wiring. We install the heated steering wheel switch in the factory location, either on the steering column shroud or the dashboard. We then update the steering column module and body control software. The final step includes a functional test to confirm the heating activates and reaches the correct temperature.

Benefits of a Heated Steering Wheel
You feel the warmth within minutes of starting the vehicle. The heating element spreads heat evenly across the entire rim, so both hands stay comfortable in every grip position. The system maintains a steady temperature without the need for constant adjustment.
The factory integration keeps all existing steering wheel controls fully functional. Your audio, cruise, and phone buttons remain in the same positions and operate exactly as before. The heated wheel matches your original interior trim perfectly, with no visible changes or additional wiring.
Cold weather comfort improves driver focus and reduces hand stiffness. You maintain a relaxed grip and precise steering control, especially on long winter journeys. The heated wheel also reduces the temptation to wear thick gloves, which can reduce steering feel.
