Once adjusted and tucked away behind the seatbelt achor, they are nearly invisible.

The joyful feeling of a cheap, simple mod that makes all the difference... even though it was less than a 15 minute job, you still deserve a...

Further mod I plan on this is to upgrade the installation by placing a thick-ish plastic sheet behind the bladder in the seat. The bladder slips in between the seat springs and the cushion. I'm concerned that over time the spring may abrade the bladder and cause a leak. A flat piece cut out of the side of a washer fluid, bleach, etc. bottle would probably do the trick. Thick enough to protect but not stiff enough to affect seating comfort.

Donv,
Thanks so much for the great installation instructions and photos. I have often wondered why my seats have no lumbar adjustment. I think I'll order a pair of those up, right now. Nice work.

Hi,
I looked into those, and they are a great kit. The issue I have is that it precludes one from installing aftermarket seat heaters which I plan to do, so I think I'm gonna pass on them.
But, if all you're looking for is Lumbar Support, this kit is pretty good. For the more frugal, you can buy a pair of Sphygmomanometers (Blood Pressure Cuffs) from Walgreens or such for about $7 each which are practically the same and will work identically to these...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
