I think I could install a second screw next to the seat heater switch and solve the problem, but Tustin Hummer said there wasn't enough room. I think I'll try a second screw and if that doesn't work I'll try the Dremmel.

I've heard of others doing the Dremel solution with success and then you don't have a bunch of exposed screws.

The auto turn ON of the seat is cause by the plastic trim where the switch is. When you sit it push the plastic trim down and turn ON the switch. to Solve the problem you have to screw the trim into the metal frame in order to make it fixed. and here is where the screw goes. Passenger side View attachment 1949 Driver Side View attachment 1950 GM has a bulletin on this. After I mentionned it to the tech, he came back with it and he applied the screws where it was mentionned on the bulletin. No more heating seat automatically now. ;) hope this help with your problem.
