LOL! All my wife knew was that the seat was ‘fixed’, not how! Mine weren’t even decent towels, rags really...

Thanks to the OP for posting this tip, I just got the LWBS installed in my GT3 and love them. But after 4 hour drive yesterday, I also need more lumbar support...lower back started crying compared with the 4 way sofas for my skinny build

Good info in this thread. Nice to see you can adjust easily yet maintain the OEM look.

I'm still in the honeymoon phase with my LWB's, but I absolutely love them as is.
First trip was 10 hour trip back from Atlanta after purchase. Wife and I both thought they were great and didn't get tired of them.

Fwiw, I also love the 18-ways in my Macan....but hated the 14-ways in my '18 GTS.

Just did another 3 hours this morning with a hand towel stuffed under the insert, I can happily confirm for me it was a night and day difference

(Also hate the 14 ways in my '17 C4)

Does the center seat insert just come off in the bucket seats from the factory?
