multicontour seats anyone?

did anyone buy the multicontour seats here. Seems like all the benz's I've seen in the C Class range don't have them. I ordered mine with the seats so I have them.

Multi-contour seat backs are only available on C320 sedans and wagons. I think they are standard on C32's.

The multi-contour seat is driver side only. The passenger seat does not have that feature. I've only seen one C-Class with seat. Also, it's not available with the sport seats. Most C-Class buyers don't go for all the little features as their looking for an inexpensive luxury car, and that's just not a must-have. If I were in a E, I'd get the drive dynamic seats, but those are completely different anyway.

I have the driver's multi-contour in my 02 C320 and would not do it again. I find the air bags like little rolls that push into my back and the cushion bag cuts orr the circulation in my legs. I also had them on a W210 and felt about the same.
I have an E500 ordered and did not order the drive dynamic.

what multi-contour seats!!!...C32 don't even have'em as an option. They are available for C240/320 as an option. CLK, E, etc can all get'em too. CLK has multi-contour seats on both side.

I have seen one US W203 in which I installed a comand with that feature...and must say that I hated the cheap way the controls were designed...
I retrofitted multicontour bags in both my (driver and passenger) W202 seats and must say that I don't really like to use them unless I am on a 400+ mile drive and then I use the multicontour feature to massage my back ...

greetingz,

I was talking just about the which C class cars have them. I figured the more expensive cars would have them so I didn't look for those on mbusa.com. The multi-contour seats are not available in the 240, unless the build your own site is screwed up, again.
