As the seats were originally equipped with heating pads, in order not to prevent their ventilation, the modification factory has perforated the heating pads again. Seat ventilation design involves complex operations such as circuitry and process technology. Improper modifications can lead to fuse burns or even short circuits. Therefore, car owners should not arbitrarily modify electrical components such as ventilation and heating in unprofessional stores to avoid potential safety hazards for driving.
