More Luxury - Heated and Massage Function Retrofit to Second Row Captain's Chairs!

So it turns out that 20 minutes from where I live, there is a shop called Union Leather that specializes in automotive upholstery.

Actually, this is their front office, with the actual workshop located about 8 minutes away in the car repair mecca of Tsuzuki ward



On reading their website, turns out they can also add seater heaters as well, so of course I had to call and ask.  They install only these units from TC-Style, all apparently made in Japan.

Then I found out by looking at the TC-Style website that they also sold seat massage units.  And hence, this project was born. As a small shop, I had to make a reservation in advance, which was perfectly as I was able to order the massage units and seat heaters with plenty of time to spare.

The work was shown on Union Leather's Instagram page, which is where I got these photos

Given how little space there is on the seat frame, decided to have buttons installed here.

Now of course I am tempted to add the massage function to the front seats... maybe next time?
