Anyone ever install seat heaters? How to Guide? Pointers? Etc... The big thing is remove the seat covers, I know the electrical side of things and obviously the kit will tell me where and how to apply the elements.

I have and also re-upholstered seats in leather as well.
You need a "hog ring" tool. This is what holds the upholstery to the seat frame. You can use needlenose pliers, But some areas are very difficult to get at with them. You can get extra hog rings and the tool at many local car upholstery shops or : http://www.jcwhitney.com/PROFESSION...RS/GP_2007934_N_111+10201+600017970_10101.jcw

Here is what the hog rings look like:

Here is a write-up from the Audi forum, Basically all seats are very similar.
