Another, idea that struck me. Heated seats. This is actually a fairly simple idea. You can pull them from any factory-equipped car. Try the local pick n pull sacramento. Just make sure they can bench test them before you walk out the door. You'll want the thermostat control with this, which can be mounted under the tail for adjustment while riding. Basically, heated seats are no more then a heating pad element that sits under the upholstery, a top the padding. The heating elements average about 100-140 degrees F. I did a search for "Upholstery Heating Elements" and came up with some good results and even installation instructions and tutorials for various seats. Both OEM and retro fits.

Buy from the right auto parts store. If you aren't in the know it's quite difficult to spot a good store from a bad one.

Cars and trucks that are 1995 or newer, as of 2010 must have the title. Junk cars that are more than 15 years old don't require a title. Also having a registration can help in some cases it depends on your location and state rules/regulations.
