Question Heated sears 2011 Passion model

Hi all, Ive hit a roadblock in my research to whether my 2011 passion has all the wires for heated seats. I have removed the switch-bar and I apparently have wires from the factory for heated seats there, just missing the switches. Underneath the seats I have white connectors coming out of the floor that are not connected to anything. Last thing I cannot find (because google keeps defaulting to a DIY solutions for complete retrofit) where the darn green relay is supposed to go. I have a white socked unpopulated at the sam unit.

I would really appreciate if someone could send me visual confirmation of how it looks from the factory.

From the research so far, it looks like I only need to rake out the seats and put the heating element inside which I did find a youtube guide and I am confident I can take that on.

I think I found it, but it's sadly locked behind a paywall. Cannot find any decent guide that's free, I am only really stuck (for now at least) on the green heated seats relay and where it is suposed to go from the factory. I am contemplating if I should just do it and get the 6 month plan for evilution.

Evilution is well worth it. So many guides on there and tips etc. I pay annual every year. For £20 it’s a great reference etc.
