The hoses were disconnected from the pump, all I did was reconnect them (no zip ties just pushed them back into the black Y connector, they fit TIGHT. I am going to super glue them when it gets nice out)

As far as the seat backs you will need to give your tech a hard time-they came off in less than 1 minute and went on just as quick and easy (it's 2 screws...)
about plane ticket no worries mate, have to first find the perfect breeding skirt.

I think my mechanic was lazy when he told me covers are a -itch to re-install?
Now I'm going to tell him, just do it!
He was stealerships best trained MB mechanic, this guy is the only professional who's allowed to touch my car

guess what's fixed? .. side bolsters and all!.. now the passenger side no hoses disconnected at back.. but from the front where all the plugs are.. the grey hose is loose.. it seems to plug in to the floor someplace under the seat on the driver's side so I assume this is why the passenger side is inop.

but still major win when you can fix something on your car with a screw driver and 5 minutes.
