Major thanks to you SWJTX. Early last year I traded in my '11 Clubbie for a '14 that was on the lot that only had 7K (to get the last of the real Clubman) and I didn't realize that the lumbar in my '11 was an optional upgrade. It was a serious WTF? moment as every car I've the last 25 years had friggin lumbar included, even in my POS cars. Really a d**k move by BMW to not have it already in.

 

I know, should have been standard, I know some people who dont like the lumbar. If you can believe that.

 

The one benefit of not having lumbar adjustment is that you sink a bit further into the backrest and so get more cornering grip up until your back complains.

 

Thanks for this thread! I'm in the market for MINI Cooper 4 door hardtop right now. There was a used one I liked but it had standard seats. I have back issues and after a test drive, I found even the standard seat to be a bit uncomfortable. Does anyone know if this lumbar modification works on a 2015 or 2016 standard seat (not just a sports seat)? I asked the dealer and they said it's a totally different frame....but I'm reluctant to believe that!

I purchased this retrofit lumbar support for my 2015 F56 sport seats and I can't figure out how to fit the vertical arm into the side of the seat.

Has anyone done this?? Very frustrated that instructions are nowhere.

 

Just those link I have above, i dont know if anyone has posted about it.

 

Thanks. That thread was for an earlier design and doesn't apply to this one. Thanks anyway.

 

Anyone figured this out since the last post for F56?
