It's more of a necessity when you have leather seats more than cloth 
seats, but they're still quite useful with cloth seats. 4-cyl models 
take forever to warm up inside, compared to 6-cylinder ones, and the 
seat warmers are pretty much your only source of heat for the first 5 
minutes after starting off. 5 minutes is murder without heating on 
certain days. And of course with leather seats, they are always too cold 
in the winter and too hot in the summer. I have no idea why anyone gets 
leather seats.
