Test drove a GMC Sierra 1500 Elevation (heated steering wheel)

So a few weeks back I test drove a 2024 GMC Sierra, the only thing it had on my 21 Tundra was a heated steering wheels, so I fixed that, also did the Meso volume correct at the same time.

No more plastic tractor wheel.

Link to purchase added late, sorry forgot that.

You get that from cartrimhome.com?

 

You added heat to the steering wheel? More info please.

 

The website I listed has heated steering wheels for our trucks.

I can feel the money leaving my wallet.

 

So rad! Only $520 shipped!

 

I've looked at this hard, but wasn't sure about ordering, no one else seem's to have posted about this version here. How is the heat? All the way around or only in certain areas? How was the installation? Does the heat add much to the job?

 

Did you watch any of the videos that are posted on the site?

 

Yes. I guess the installations are on other vehicles, so I am curious if anything surprising came up, I do know it should be basically identical. And I don't trust the people who sell the product to give me a honest description of how well it works.

I'm a pessimist I suppose.

 

I can understand that, hopefully OP will comment back on quality and install process.

 

I am interested.

 

Dang I thought it was going to be $350. I'll have to ponder this one. The installation looks easy to mess up as well. OP, how was the installation?

 

Yes that is probably it, the box said cartrimhome, but I bought it on Amazon for under $400.

Had to extend wires on switch to get it over to center under radio as all the slots by steering wheel were full.

Watched the video install straight forward, only been on for a day now so time will tell, but looks like good quality, much better than the plastic steering wheel.

they are also listed on eBay.

replaces plastic steering wheel with a new leather wrapped heated steering wheel, link to Amazon where purchased in post above this one, sorry forgot that in original post, will add it there now.

 

Cheaper on Amazon and eBay.

 

$400 on Amazon. install was like video showed, had to extend wires on switch due to no empty switch locations near wheel, so put it in center under radio.

 

I just put it on yesterday and yesterday was pretty warm, turned it on for a few seconds, seems like it is all around but let me confirm on Monday morning. need to change clock spring to get the heat but it comes with the wheel.

 

here is the video I watched

This looks great!

Oh man, I've seen this been talked about for years, can you share how warm it feels? I'm dying for heated steering wheel in this truck.

 

sorry still hasn't got cold here... tomorrow night is the coldest in the 7 day forecast at 37, so will probably turn it on then.
