Didn't know my GTA seats did that!

Hows it going? So the other day I was at the car wash vacuuming my car's interior when I came across a female-type fuse connector under the driver's side seat. I was curious to find out what it was for but then it hit me: Both driver's and passenger's seats have 4 buttons on the sides which never worked since I bought the car so that fuse must be for that function which I didn't know what at the time! So I popped in a fuse and started tampering with the buttons but only heard the mechanical sound of something moving and thats it. It wasn't until I sat in it and started tampering with the buttons that I felt the sides hug me a bit and the back part push up against my back .... actually pretty cool if u ask me . What is ths option called and what is the RPO code?

L8R,
Phoenix

That's a normal function of the GTA seats. The "lumbar" controls.

Lumbar adjustment is awesome. I've had it in other cars, my favoite being the seats in an old Prelude with the 4-wheel steering package. You could adjust everything about that seat, and no wires, which is nice when you're swapping seats around.

If GTA seats were typically in better shape, I'd have a set in the Camaro.

My 4th gen seats are exactly the same as the GTA seats except they have a different headrest than the E.T. style of the GTA's.

Lumbar is NIIIIICE

Yeah got my seat at a certain setting already lol makes the drive more comfy too. I actually found a set of 4th gen seats myself in excellent condition for $550 and they're power. Hopefully they'll stick around for a bit. I'm guessing 4th gen seats are a tad bit more comfortable am I right??

No difference between the 4th gen seats and the Ultima's in the GTAs except the headrest and the power tracks on the driver side seat.
