Well we certainly understand why you've never noticed the steering wheel heater activation switch...could they have hidden it any better? 
Where is the switch located?

If you have heated seats you have a heated steering wheel too. The button is on the left side of the steering column behind the steering wheel.

i wished we had cooled steering wheel and seats!
By the way, the ventilated seats, to me, are worth their weight in gold! (Then again, I think that's about what I paid for them...) Seriously, I recently had a few days with a 528xi loaner car and each day, the back of my shirt was damp after a short commute from home to work. This never happens with my car.

Cooled seats as in ventilated? Not a problem here!
