Here is my 98 LSC, paid $4,500, has 62k mi. I've fixed a couple things like heated seats, seat switches, and polished the headlamp lenses, but have not detailed it yet. Now everything works great, it drives fantastic ! One of the most exciting cars I've ever had.

Beautiful Mark VIII!

How did you fix the heated seats?

When I got the car, the cruise control and heated seats did not work. Later I found that the previous owner had not had the cruise control recall performed, I checked the fuse... it was gone, as in removed (the same fuse operates CC and Heated Seats). Once the recall was performed, I put a fuse in and they both worked except one of the heated seat buttons was missing, so I replace the entire panel with switches and buttons.

Kinda a funny story, as I said in the intro, drove this car 1200mi home. Shortly after I started my trip, I adjusted the seat, but went to far with the backrest, it was pretty much 90 degrees vertical, when I went to lean it back....NADA ! Drove the entire way sitting straight up ! That seat also only moved backwards, not forwards.

I ordered new switches, once I got them, I tore the old ones apart, cleaned all the contacts and put it back together, now it works great !
 
Looks great, congratulations! I'm wondering what the white rectangles on the sidewalls are, weights or just stickers?

Very clean car.
