They don't crack if you treat the leather the right way. Mine always made me feel like I was going to wet myself. They also put a fair load on the engine just to warm your bottom. They bite into the mpg level by a few for sure.

Pissing myself in the car got expensive so went for seat heating instead

I don't think most people do treat their seats though do they? I know I do but I think a lot of people neglect this area of the car when they clean it.

You are likely to get a 60 fine for that if stopped or made to remove it on the spot instead. You could change it to white and youll be fine

Starting to get the bug

How much did you pay for them? And where from?

Managed to locate a rubbery/plastic squeaking noise that happened everytime i reversed, which initially sounded like a dry suspension top mount on the nearside.

Turns out its the re-circ flap for the climate control, it closes everytime you reverse and its squeaking as it seals shut! Time to break out the lube...... :)

You see how much of a difference the grille makes. You trading it in for another diesel or petrol?
