That's some serious hacking you've done there; chapeau!

I have to admit, I am not a fan of active cruise, though. I put it on and some minutes later, I find that I am crawling along because the car has decided to slow down without me noticing. Cruise control I used to find useful but the nature of the terrain here which is frequently undulating makes it more economical to control the throttle using the driver's brain rather than submit to the car's intelligence which is both artificial and limited. Bliss, however is a very good idea, especially for my RHD car here in France. The self parking gimmick, I may have used about three times, just to prove that it works. I was lucky enough to buy an almost fully loaded car and although I would like heated seats, I am not sure it would be worth the bother.

Heated seats and wheel are a good send, I fitted wheel and 1 seat about a year ago and I really love the feature here in UK een today was only 8 degrees and I had the wheel on a for a while. I couldn't find a driver's heated and electric seat so bought the OEM heat pads, came to £90 for the pair and fitted them but the tasks is very very difficult ont he performance seats
