Default Where is the heated seats feature

Yes this might sound like a stupid question but I am looking to buy a 2001 Audi a4 Quattro 1.8t and I would like to know where the heated seat button is in the vehicle.

They will be roller switches with numbers 0-6 on them, located on the left and right lower part of the climate control panel IF it has heated seats.

Personal advice - if you don't live in the southern third of the country, make sure you get them - all of my cars have seat heaters and living in NY, I would have a very hard time buying one without them. Every Audi I looked at had them, so that was easy. I passed on three 5-series cars, one of which was an MSport like the one I ended up buying, because they didn't have them, and I looked for two months during the search for my Odyssey to find one with leather and heated seats along with the other things I wanted. Up here it is too cold for too much of the year not to have them.

My wife loved the heated seats in my 99.5 A4 more than the ones in her 09 Maxima! I'm not a huge fan of heated seats personally, but if it's cold enough, I'll put it on "1" for a few minutes just to help get the blood flowing.

Cooled seats though? The Maxima has that feature, and I use the hell outta that down here in Texas from March to November!

Cooled seats are something I am jealous of. I'd love that option. It surprises me that it took quite awhile longer for companies to start offering heated rear seats honestly - it's like "screw it, let the kids shiver as long as mom and dad are warm".

Of course if I had them, I'd probably go to detail the car in June and find the seats have been left on high heat since March...
