Default If you have heated seats -- are they worth it?

Was planning on getting heated seats. See some complaints here that they only have 1 heat level ... that is too hot? For those of you that have heated seats, are they worth it?

I really like mine, my only complaint is that they shut themselvesoff after a while. I'd definitely get them again especially if you can get them as part of the convenience package (power passanger seat,heated mirrors and compass mirror)

every car ive had the last 5 years has had heated seats and i hate them. they make your rear end sweat... why would you want that... even in the 40 below winters here.. i hate them.. what you want is cooled seats.. i dont even know if you can get them in a mustang but those are a luxury

I have them, and love 'em! Why would you want more than one level of heat? It's just as easy to turn them off.

You might want to consider if you'll be driving your car year 'round though. They are nice to have in the winter to hold you over while you're waiting for hot air to come out of the vents.

I have them and love them too. Another nice time to use them is when I have the top down on my vert and it starts getting a little chilly out, so I use them more than just in the winter.

I have them and love them! Its really nice on cold mornings or when its a little chilly out but you still want your windows down. I find that when you first turn them on it heats the seats to a certain degree, but if you turn them on again once they shut off, or turn them off and then back on after theyve been on for 5-10 minutes, they do feel hotter. Never had them get hot enough for me to actually sweat tho. Whats $500 over 5 years anyways
