Cooled seat idea

My dads seats in his Lincoln are cooled and i thought that why cant i do that. I thought about it and the most simple way that i can think of doing that is pushing air through the seats somehow. i was thinking bags and a fan but i don't think i could get that to work while people are sitting in it and that is kind of the point. If anyone has any ideas on this please post this but i thought this would be a really cool mod. then you could put three switches in the heated seat switch one for passanger heat one for driver heat and one for dual cool, or mabe four that part doesnt really matter. thanks in advance for your guyses imput. ps. i hope i placed this in the right section i figured i was safe with this one.
 


Some suppliers of cooled seats use special absorbent materials under breathable seat coverings to wick away moisture and heat. Other suppliers use active ventilation from a fan, or multiple fans, that pick up air-conditioned air from the car's ducting and channel the cool air through the seatback.

ya i figured that they would use fans but i was wondering about an easy way for me to do it myself with fans or something of that nature
 
will the fome be to dense though for the air to go through it? where do you think i could find two electric motors that r small enough yet powerful enough to do this. ill keep looking but advice is still very much so appreciated.
 
peltiers or cooling fans for a computer. the main concern you would have is your material on your seats. the seats with the cooling have small venting holes. It would be cheaper to park it in the shade.
 


ya i figured that the fome would be to dence. is there a way that anyone can think of that would pump the air through a hose system that has little holes in kind of like the watering hose that does the same concept
