Gentleman function install DIY vid inside

First, special thanks to 'Beast27' for posting the pictorial on what this is, and how to do it!
I decided to do this, and capture a video while completing this. Here it is!


For those that don't know what the 'Gentleman' function is.....you'll enjoy the vid.

anyone able to still order this part? I tried searching for the part number on a few online BMW parts sites and they all say the part is discontinued. Did the part number change?

I ordered this part (61-31-9-361-190) from my dealer about a month ago and paid 96.00. It's the switch that is for seats with massage option. Once received it was pretty straightforward install. Good luck.

hi guys! I have a strange thing with my retrofit, I did install Everything correctly. But when I try to code this, the driver side modul pops up, coded Gentleman function, but the passenger seat modul is nowhere on the Bimmercode app, So I can not code this, my car have Memory seats on driver side but no Memory buttons on the passenger side. Both seats have Electric buttons to move seats and suchs. am I missing something where to finde this modul on expert mode?

I think the passenger side must also have the memory function available.

Okej, But it is still strange that there is no seat passenger modul.

I saw a Youtube clip where someone also did this retrofit, and those seats only have back and fourth Electric seats and those worked. hmm… realy strange

Okej guyes, I found that it can not be retrofited to a car with only one side Seat module, I checked under the seats and driver side had a White big module, and the passenger had a little black module. I think that must be it, I don’t know if I can add this white module to the passenger and somehow code it to my car.

Or I need to put in diffrent M5 seats.

Just so others know.
