    Oh, comfort seat = regular E34 cushioned seat, not the sport seat. I think the sport seat will work, but haven't gotten a chance to look at the frame.

    Best place to find the parts is to hunt down an E32 in a junk yard (lots of them, everywhere) with bad front seats, and pull the parts yourself. Or see if Winfred or Rigmaster have these parts floating around.

    Default Installed lumbar support

    that I bought from Kelevera a month ago. Followed his instructions. Yes you had to wrestle it in. Bit of a pain. I did find the elec connector under the seat tied up and a bit difficult to stretch to connect to the switch. I may need to remove the seat to get it connected correctly. No big deal. The lumbar effect seems a bit suble yet the lower seat back does move out I would estimate 1/2 inch. Have not driven the car with the part in. Not much sound as motor is muffled. Used swith had both bulbs burnt out so I soldered in new bulbs and tinted with glass paint. all done.

    Perhaps now I can deal with my leaky expansion tank and squeaky accessory belt or tensioner. Also plan to replace my idler arm next weekend. Never stops does it
