Adding heated seat to SW?

I used the Artic Cat kit on my Viper. It was a simple plug-and-play. Does the same kit work on The Sidewinder?

Heat demon. 70 bucks no brainer.
2300 miles this year on mine worked great!. Actually can not leave it on just cycle on and off. It gets damn hot.. But its awesome on those really cold mornings. I ride early

YOU CAN GET THE HEAT DEMON WITH A HIGH AND LOW AS WELL. HAD MINE BURN UP SEAT AND PANTS LAST YEAR.THERE WAS A BIG RECALL ON THEM
AGREED TOO HOT WITH JUST THE ONE TEMP ONE. USE MINE ON LOW ALL THE TIME, HIGH NOT REQUIRED

Is the Heat Demon weather proof? I had an ad on unit that we use in the automotive industry. On the last ride last year it rained hard and burned the unit out along with my seat cover and bibs.

The RX1 seat cover has little holes in it.

Should never happen with a inline fuse in place.

I have the Moose brand one with one setting. Its just perfect temp for Railroad grades. Everywhere else it never gets warm enough to notice since my butt isn't on the seat long enough!

I will have to check. Thought I put a fuse in it but maybe not.

Well its crazy they do not mention it in the install directions.. I put a 2 or 3 amp inline in mine.. I cant remember exactly. I even contacted them about putting one in.. they did contact me back.. Kinda strange they dont recommend the fuse.. My riding buddy is a electrical engineer. SO in went the fuse

WHY ARE YOU YELLING?

Yes

I don't see the two wire plug that the Viper has to get power. On the Viper it was just behind oil tank.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about adding a heated seat to my Apex. Trying to choose between adding the winder element or the demon. 30 watts for the demon doesn't sound like much.
Anybody have experience with both that can make a recommendation?
