I have the CobraHeat seat heaters and I need to run power to them. My radio power wire (brown) is not being used. Can I run both the drivers and passengers seat heaters off that circuit, or will that draw too much and overload it? If the radio circuit isn't good to use for this, what is a good circuit to tie into for this purpose? Thanks!
If you're not installing a heater, the heater circuit at 20 amps may be a better choice.

I powered both off my radio wire (or was it my wipers? i'll need to check). no issues so far.

Check the fuse size on the circuit you are considering using. Read the description of the seat heaters, ie amps needed to operate. This will help you avoid issues. Good luck,

Once I saw the spiderweb gauge wires for the seat heaters, I had no problem using the 10A radio wire to feed my seat heaters.
