HARLEY MAKES ALL THAT STUFF AND THE CONNECTORS TO MAKE IT ALL WORK. IT IS EXPENSIVE BUT IS THE ULTIMATE IN WARM COMFORT.

I'm a big fan of Gerbings. Great products and great customer service. I have owned one of their jacket liners and thermostat for years. Website is www.gerbings.com. if I recall. The jacket liner is particularly nice because it also keep your arms warm along with the torso as a vest does. Gerbings has gloves, pants, socks, vests, jackets, snowmobile suits, etc.

Go with Gerbings, from all my research on the internet, Gerbings makes the HD stuff. My local vendor sells jacket liners for $199, the heated gloves for $139, and the over pants for $229.....Best I can tell these are set prices by the manufacturer...I can't even find it cheaper on E-Bay...

Kind fo pricey but they will keep you toasty warm. I have the jacket liner, and gloves with a single thermostat. Next little overtime I get I'm getting the overpants and a dual thermostat. Well worth the money when going to work in 10 degree weather @ 70 MPH. (Did that last winter)

Go with the Gerbings jacket liner for $199. Mine's been flawless for 6 years now, even though it does come with a lifetime warranty...

Take a look at this site:

Cruzan Engineering

I just had a couple of liners done for my leather coats and it works great. Very affordable and good quality. Their turn around time was 9 days door to door with priority mail.
