    I've had this idea to get some hose and connect to the floor AC tubes to make cooled seats.

    Anyone tried this? I haven't dug into the anatomy of the seat yet but it seems doable.

    Thoughts?

    Your idea sounds like a good one. Go forth and make it happen!

    Well, since apparently no one has tried it yet, I'll give it a go and report back!

    I’m very interested in seeing your outcome, that’s one feature I miss especially living in 500% daily humidity in Louisiana

    If your seats aren't perforated, I don't think you'll get very far. I've seen some other folks try something similar on other forums, but it requires quite a bit of modification of the seat. Actually, chris fix has a pretty good video he made on installing an odor remover. I imagine you could apply the same techniques but reverse the fan.
