Question Seat Comfort

I have had my SLK for a relatively short while now and have discovered it has little to no lumbar support. The previous owenr may have been a "larger" person because the foam is quite compressed too for a 30k mile car.
Anyway, anyone know any ways of getting the seat to be a tad more supportive without ripping it out and replacing with a factory new one?
Thanks!

Me too

My back needs lumbar support, too.

I set the power seat so the bottom cushion is raised up in front, then adjust everything else to accomodate that. When sitting, I usually make sure I push myself as far back into the seat as I can.

This should be exactly what you need.

Thanks!
Might have to give that a shot after the Vario mod is complete.
