anyone install power lumbar?
Anybody install power lumbar?
My back isn't great and this is the first car I've had in a while that didn't have power lumbar. Actually my last car that didn't have lumbar was my 1998 Camaro Z28. The first trip out to NY after buying the car and my back was aching. Back then a friend's father had a contact at an upholstery shop that only did dealer work, but he was able to get them to work on my car and install a power lumbar. 20 years later I drive my new Camaro SS out to NY and my lower back was not too happy and very much missing a power lumbar. I no longer have that connection, so I'll be looking around or possibly do something myself. Looking to see if other people have done anything. Did any Camaro models come with power lumbar? I have a 2017 2SS, so it's pretty well equipped. TIA |

None come with power lumbar.
When I drove my car home 1.5 hrs after I bought it, my back was sore too. I have this temper-pedic memory foam pad. I usually drive around with it. It's not intrusive and helps me a lot. If you want to go a step further, I also have the Dreamer Car Back Support, I got off Amazon. I had that in another car for real long drives (4+ hours). It is amazing. It does make the seat bottom a little shallower but it provides a tons of support/comfort. Haven't used it in the Camaro yet though b/c haven't needed it to. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The only downside is you have to pump it up every so often as it won't hold air for long periods. But that aspect doesn't bother me at all. It is a very good and inexpensive solution: http://www.sportsimportsltd.com/inseluinairc.html
