Heated Seats

So question for you guys. I'm looking at trying to get some heated seats and I'm curious if anyone has any experience with these things.

I did some google searching and this kit here looks pretty damn nice (can make it look completely stock and don't have use the cigarette lighter to power it).

http://www.sportsimportsltd.com/afcarseathea.html

Curious if anyone has done anything like this for a vehicle? Anyone know of any cheaper kits that will still look somewhat stock? I found heated seat covers that ran off the cigarette lighter, but I would prefer to go with something that could be pretty much completely hidden.

NOTE: This is not for a Ranger based vehicle, so explorer seats won't work (without making custom brackets and that is something I don't want to tackle).
