do the seat heaters have a rocker switch which always stays on, or is it a momentary type switch that snaps back to the center/off position? if u left the seat "on" when u shut the car, will it come on when its restarted? or does the remote starter only start the car, and not turn on the accessories?

The only climate control set to come on is the defroster. The car detects if it is needed and cranks it. Or in the summer it will crank the A/C up. If you want to get down and dirty you can alter the remote start to include turning the seats on, but it only takes them a second or two to get warm so why bother?

remote starter does not do anything with the seats... will only turn on the heat/defroster or the A/C...

Guess that portal to hell heated seat mod I got is worth having to listen to the screams of the damned. I normally just drown them out with rap music so it isn't too bad.
I normally hit the heated seat button at the time I'm getting my snow brush out of my car. By the time I'm back in my seat is nice and toasty. If I'm just driving along and decide to hit it I normally have warmth in under 30 seconds.
they seem to take longer to heat up. More butt to go through, so they don't feel warm for a while.

Your right it does blow hot air but it goes to defrost mode. In this mode the AC is engaged to "dry" the air out. So if your ever racing and your in defrost mode your ac is running :X Also if you put your car into recirculate mode the AC will stay on even tho the light will be off.
