Yes, cool only works on high. There are ways to buy the proper switches that allow low, medium, high. Didn’t want to bother

Ok I will have to see if I can find the wiring diagrams. You felt the heat got too hot or you were worried you were going to burnout the heater on the seat?

Are you able to order the switches separate? I have a dealer 15 minutes from me I may try calling them today. Thanks for all the help so far with this.

5hub, is there any way you can get me the wiring schematic you or your guy used on the seats. I've been searching with little luck but I'm going to keep digging.

Fordboy - did you ever get a response back on the mount for the expedition seats? I am planning on installing some expedition seats in my 2nd and 3rd rows for the sole purpose of having shoulder strapped seat belts on every seat.

I am WAY late to the party but I'm in Spring and just picked up a 2000. I would love to see some of the work you guys have done in person, absolutely interested in the seat/console swap!!! I think I've seen a couple of you guys running around town, I'll try to catch up with you at a gas station or something soon
