Difference between massage and no-massage seats?
Is there a difference between massage and no-massage seats on the X166 GL450? I'm trying to get a leatherette seat cover and mine (no massage option) is discontinued. The same seat cover with the massage option is available though. Does anyone know if they look the same? (I assume the size of the seats should be the same).

Unfortunately, there are no photos, only contours when you try to look at the photos of these seat covers:

THANKS EVERYONE!

It shouldn't matter. It appears that you are looking for the cover for the bottom cushion, which doesn't contain any massage anyway. Just match the color to your seatback and you'll be just fine.
