Our local NISPC club show runs thru Sunday. A fella asked me if I had ever seen or heard of an aluminum "heated seat". He said His Dad bought the tractor new from a dealer in North central Illinois. The seat sat on a normal 88 mount, but had two hoses from the radiator plumed to the side of it.
I said it sounded like aftermarket, that maybe somebody ordered and then didn"t take, but He swore His Dad had bought it off the lot, brand new in 1953.
 
The only heated seats I have seen,or been on, is after the sun has beat on them all day.

I have seen a couple, they were made in Cedar Rapids IA. if I remember right. The ones I have seen have the company name on the bottom. I still know where there is one on a 550 in town
 
Yeah RR. I asked about that and He said there was a shutoff valve close to the seat. Said that seat would get pretty hot, especially if you turned it on for a cold morning, then it warmed up in the PM.
 
We had a super m with an aluminum water heated seat that we used for a chore tractor years ago. It had a valve on it like a faucet on the outside of a house to controle the water flow. It worked great! The only time it ever caused any trouble was when I fired the tractor up on a below zero day and my a-- was frozen. I opened the valve and hooked on to the feed grinder and had just started grinding when my tank wagon agent showed up with furnace fuel. I talked to him and got warmed up wile the grinder was running. when I went back to the tractor all that was left of the vinal seat cover was a pile of goo and the draw string. Im not so sure it didnt say tractor supply on the bottom.
 
I got curious and did a little googling and found an article on The Farm Show about a collector. He had a heated tractor seat from the Warm Seat Co., Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I tried searching the company, but no luck.
