Help with Heated Seats V70-XC70

Hi,
in older 850s of 94 the seat heating construction was not built to last. The metallic spring construction parts rub off the heating wire insulation in normal use and cause a shortcut or heating resistor wire break and cold you are, lucky if you don't get the seat cover burnt by shortcut.
Have two 850s with four cold front seats now while the oldie saab900/88 is still heating fine. Would hope volvo be able to learn something here.
