Heated seats. Fuze size?

Post by 72BUG »

Having fitted my Saab heated front seats following the guide in the wiki (Thankyou very much once again to 80-90 and the original poster :ok )

I've worked out how to wire in the switches for the heater elements. The only thing I can't find is what size fuze to use.

Anyone got any idea?

Thanks
Martin.
