Heated Steering wheel and heated seats retrofit insatall on a PRO ??

[bquist]

Where can I find the drawing/diagram for the fuse box? These are the only paprers that came with the truck and no fuses in these booklets... Maybe someone has a photo of the fuse box for Lightning Pro?

The owners manual is digital now. You can either look at it on your 12" screen in the truck or download the .pdf file off the Ford website.

I installed the Rostra seat heaters and lumbar support into the Pro.

Used open fuse slot #37 for ignition-on power, and ran the wires under the flooring.

The trickiest part for me was disconnecting the seat cover clips without damaging them or ripping them from the foam. Once released, a priceless tip was to slit (on each end) about 1.5" of the felt that connects the support rod to the seat cover, so that the rod can still be secured into the clips and at the same time fit under the heating element edges (which cannot be cut).

The lumbar support went in behind the foam, zip tied against the springs. It was initially positioned 1-2" too high because the seat foam has a lip at the bottom that held it up. After talking to a Rostra rep, I ended up lowering it by trimming off some of the hard plastic backer sheet. I also had to smooth the cut edge and cover a couple spring ends so they won't slice the bladder that now overhangs a bit.

Here are a few videos I found helpful:

Heated steering wheel has been done on the ICE trucks, see this thread https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/heated-steering-wheel-retrofit.6022/

I read through it and I think I'm going to try and add the heated steering wheel to my XLT. I haven't decided on heated vs heated+ventilated seats yet

Did you ever try to add the heated steering wheel? I've run the wires and done the install, but can't get the heat to come on

Not yet... been a lot busier lately than I expected.
