Yea I've seen a few but never got close enough to see how it was done.i do have all the brackets and bolts from the ZJ I'm sure it won't be that bad to install them it will be nice to have the 60/40 split seat to give eazy access to my tools behind my tool chest

I have heated WJ leather seats in mine and they are very comfortable. Definitely recommend them.
The issue with the ZJ rear bench in an XJ is that you lose a ton of headroom.

im somewhat tempted to switch to leathers since seat heaters will be more effective and easier to clean off, but im not a fan of sticking to leather in texas heat either

Anyway, with tinted windows, they really don't get that hot. And we've had tan, grey, and black leather.. so it's really not dependent on color.

It's funny, everyone always says stuff like that, but we've had leather seating in 5 of our last vehicles (including my wife's current) and we've never "stuck" to the seats. You don't sit naked in your Jeep do ya?

My favorite part is being able to slide in and out unlike the clothe seats that kinda of grab you. And I never stick to the seats so not sure what you mean there. Lol
