motor outline, making sure the
motors locations are
symmetrical.

pocket for the massage motor.

marked line, 1” deep. Grab the
foam at the top cut and gently
pull back while cutting the
foam at the 1” deep base. Try
to cut evenly so the pocket is
flat..

pocket and then slide the

back of the foam back. Make
sure the motor wire colors are
the same. Using spray glue,
spray into the foam cavity and
