Anyone have any progress on getting their heated steering wheel retrofitted?

I asked my dealer yesterday and they said no news yet. I got my 2022 RST in January

Thanks

You need a clock spring and the steering wheel. Then you need to use a 5 amp inline fuse. The heated steering wheel does mot go through the BCM. It works independently from the car computer and is 12v.

Nice that they didn't go through the BCM, that'll be an easy retrofit.

Are you certain of that? My Escalade turns on the heated wheel and seats in cold weather when I start the car, so something is controlling it. Maybe the Chevys don't turn on automatically?

Yeah, I want mine too. Been waiting since Feb 2022. My dealer is useless, and just says he doesn't know yet. Lame. I asked Chevy online chat and they say it'll be announced as if it were a recall, so a slow notice from GM eventually.

Had dinner w/ my sister in law who is a GM at a GM dealership…she has no more data from GM than us as the general public; and she said she has customers who are upset…so, net; no news.

Does your vehicle have the button for the heated steering wheel? Mine doesn't, but supposedly getting that and my heated seats chip installed this Friday.
