By cooled I even mean the kind that blow air (whether that is a/c or not)

If so which years/trims have that feature?

Nope.

See this thread for a potential idea about installing the cooled RL seats in a TL:

Probably too expensive and time consuming for most to even remotely consider doing if it's even feasible.

Even the 4G cars don't have them. Another small reason I ended up in a 3G... not worth the extra $$.

This is the one thing I wish my TL had. Whenever I drive a Lexus I'm sure to turn the seats on full blast. I love it.

Lincoln mkZ has cooled seats, also. Maybe those would be cheaper than Lexus or RL seats, is someone wanted to retrofit them in. I wonder how these seats are designed. Maybe running some air conditioning ducting into the seat cushion foam would do the job? someone start some R&D!

Install an air conditioner under your seat, I'm sure they did that on 'Pimp My Ride' once.
