Turning the front ventilated seats into Cooled Seats using the under seat hvac duct.
Someone 3D printed this for the RC/IS:

Then there is this guy that 3D printed one for the GS and plans to sell them on etsy, GStars facebook group.

I saw that on facebook as well. I'd like to see how it goes.

Several years back here on CL, I think in the RX forums, people were basically doing this same thing but with cardboard. Pretty simple to make an air deflector out of cardboard, it's just tacky. This is much more eloquent.

Saw this vent on the RC forum a while ago. Someone who use to have a GS here who now has a very modded RC F did it.
The other thing to think about is that you would have to run your Climate on both Dash vents and floor air to work. Making the dash vent air reduced by 50% I think, for it to work if.

Additionally however, with the duct vent under the seat split into two sections - if one section is used for the seat cooling and restricts the duct's airflow in any way that will increase the static pressure and further reduce the vehicle's HVAC's blower effectiveness to push air, which will surely reduce airflow at all supply vents even further.
The seat ventilation fan has a difficult assignment to begin with, pushing air through the seat cover's very restrictive perforation holes. I suspect the fan underneath the seat is already laboring near its static pressure limits and unable to let any more air in. Once the maximum static pressure has been reached, air flow volume drops to zero. A complaint that many owners have with the ventilated seats. I'm not sure the mod will accomplish what many think it will...
