successfully retrofitted heated steering wheel? - husky - 28:th-Aug-2018

Hi, Does anyone retrofitted heated steering wheel?

I need to change the vinil steering wheel in favor of a leather one on my Astra j. 
Since i will buy one i thought that i can buy the heated wheel.
I allready sorced the heather control with heated wheel button
As far as my logic goes i will need the folowing parts
1. Wheel itself
2. heather control
3. the airbag squib with 

What else will i need to source? Is there a different loom from the squib to some other control module?

As soon as i get all the parts i will start a how to
Thanks in advance

It's been done before, just the parts you listed the wiring should be there already at the back side of the squib.

Thank you Rusty!
Will source aeverything and convert it.
Last question - is there a programming with Tech2 for this option to work?

I did it on mine, if I remember well you will need extra power supply for airbag squib.
