    I've looked and searched, and find no instructions/information on a DIY seat heater install for GEN III.

    The following is a good DIY for GEN II.

    Prius seats

    Are there significant differences between GEN II and GEN III?

    Anyone do this?

    Thanks,
    Eric

    I don't know what the differences are but that is a great write-up.
    I couldn't find any prices for the Cartek heaters though ~ any idea?

    In Ontario it is about $250 a seat to have it installed
    and it was about the same price as it was in 2004
