Default Heated BMW bucket seats in my ls swap wagon

I've got a set of BMW convertible bucket seats to go into my 63 Chevy II wagon. I chose them for the integrated seat belts. I'm in the fitting/ mounting phase and I'm curious if anyone here has any experience with them particularly in wiring up the heat. I'm sure it's not as simple as hooking up power to the heat wires as I'd assume relays will need to be used as well as the obvious switches. Any advice in layman's terms would be much appreciated. I ask here because of the vast knowledge this site has. Thanks

Heated seats generally aren't that complicated, they should have their own modules under each seat, and it's pretty much just a few wires from them to the switches. What year and model are they out of?

I don't know for sure. Supposed to be 2005 or 2006. 315 or 318 something like that.

Those aren't models in 05 or 06 according to my diagrams. I can post a diagram for a 325i if that helps?

Anything will help. Might have been 325 instead of 315. Thanks

Couldn't link the direct pic, so screen shot it, had to do in 3 pieces so it would be big enough to read clearly
