Need power source under drivers seat.

Need a 12v 20amp power source under the driver's seat. I'm installing a mercury grand marquis lumbar motor and bladder. Yes I know blasphemy! However 3 back surgeries require me to have lumbar support to drive my all time favorite Benz. If any one has another lumbar option please let me know. I can't find the orthopedic seats in my area for a realistic price.

That's a bandaid solution.

$12 ab roller.
You need to activate your (lazy) abdominal muscles.
That'll solve your lumbar problem permanently.
Speaking from experience and vertebroplasty surgery years back.

And cut off the pint workouts.
Dont be lazy.

Since you're not a doctor, I don't think you should be giving any medical advise and accusing the OP of being lazy. Every case is individual. It's obvious the PO is under a doctor's car. The OP asked for car help, not insulting medical advise.

You obviously lack reading skills.
A suggestion - go re-arrange your kitchen cupboards.

Your nasty response to the OP is highly offensive and I have every right to call you out on it. You're very mistaken if you think the OP will post again in this forum given the terrible way you treated them. If you can't bring yourself to provide a kind and helpful response then don't respond at all. I find it troubling that the administrators of this website allow such clearly nasty and offensive behavior.

You and your nasty, bad attitude need to take a hike. If you're not here to help people then you need to take a hike. I will not stand quietly by when I see someone being mistreated like you mistreated the OP. You're the one who needs to get lost. It's long overdue for the moderators of this forum to hold you accountable for your bad behavior.

c'mon now....this isn't some facebook, reddit, social media gossip watering hole. It was set up to help people who are
trying to perform maintenance and repair on their w210 in a DIY frame of mind. let's not ruin things by turning it into
a peeing contest because it'll only splash and stain what should be a watering hole and avoid helping people avoid
paying the dealer.

My view exactly. This is why I had such a strong reaction.
