Seat Heaters/Cooler Upgrade
After many searches about the lack of heat a forced air seat heater system creates isn’t going to work, I’m open to adding a 2nd TED in parallel and a larger capacity blower motor. Any help in this direction would be appreciated
Thanks

Second? I don't think there is a first. It just blows ambient air. I think they do make a bit of a difference for black seats in the summer, but nothing outstanding.
Heat is just lawsuit friendly resistive seat elements .

I guess it has to be your expectation. I just expect a little bit cooler air on my black seats in the summer, and a little bit more heat in the winter. That's about what I get. If you were thinking you'd feel a 40 mph breeze between your legs, you are going to be disappointed.

Searches for ventilated gs 3rd gen isn’t helpful. I did find a Toyota part # and pulled up a schematic of the seat heater element. According to Toyota its a perimeter element and operates independently of the cooling system meaning I can add a factory style ceramic heater pad instead of the inefficient oem perimeter system. PNW climate demands a substantial heating system. Frankly I would even bypass the cooling setup to get a good quality heating product
