What a difference it makes parking in a garage and working from home. I'm sure I'd love the heated seats and steering wheel, but plenty of time in the winter I still flip the sunrider back, blast the heat and wear gloves. Gotta get around to adding the passive entry though, missing that can be annoying
I've got a heated garage and I still love my heated seats and wheel.

My second car, a beater 1977 Saab 99 that I resurrected with a new head gasket. (My dad had a client who was a Saab dealer and I worked in the parts department so I got used parts for free) It also had a heated drivers seat.

I can't tell you how revolutionary that was back in '77. Saab billed it as a safety feature based on their Scandanavian heritage. Every car I've ever owned since then except for my STi has had heated seats one way or another. Even if it meant buying a kit out of a JC Whitney catalogue.
