Just bought a nice 2013 Z4. Nice leather seats but doesn’t have adjustable lumber support.
Is there any way of retro fitting some adjustment?

Are you sure, it’s only a small rocker switch & easy to miss :?

Correct, it’s the round switch, I’m now told it was an expensive option. Shame you can’t just fit the switch and plug it in

Mine only has the switch which adjusts the bolsters for thin people, mine doesn’t get used :rofl:

£250 option IIRC. Yep it’s a shame it’s not plug and play. I forgot to order it on mine and when I did remember it the car was too far on in the build and they couldn’t fit it...... :headbang:

I don't have all these posh gadgets on my Zed. Anyway after a while you get used to sliding around in your seat when you throw it into corners while your right foot is having convulsions on the accelerator? :driving:
