Should mention, i haven't forgotten about this. Still have a pile of parts to start throwing on the burb and make myself happier about it. I remember having more free time when i worked more, but wasn't married...

Aaaaaannnnndd since i like having a parts pile i just ordered the light up front bowtie, Gm PN # 84751545 found it on ebay. Been looking for one and the last time i checked they were unobtainable. so just pulled the trigger on that. Looks like i should be able to get enough access to install without removing to much. i think the burb might find itself in the garage this weekend to start installing stuff and dwindle down my parts pile

Well this looks disgusting

And the seat pad i ordered was wrong. Long pattern vs short pattern. So returning the short pattern and getting the long version now..

And figured out why only one side vibrated. Wiring failed. So just ordered 2 new dorman units

But new cushion and leather look great... hopefully the new parts all show. Up this week so i can mess with it next weekend

Following to see if that is the right heater element. Even in Florida, the heated seat is nice on the way home from work to ease back pain.

TO check yours prior to ordering see my pictures, you'll probably need to unbolt your seat and look under it to ID which one you need. Turns out my 15 wants the long one

I did this to my two front seat bottoms on my 2018 Escalade luxury. They look good new. All oem parts. The second row was damaged from my daughter’s baby seat. I found someone selling take offs for $230 for both captains. You do not need to remove the seats. You can definitely do it while the seat is in place. Taking out the desk is heavy and can damage your car.
