Default the crossfire seats are flat as a board...

do others agree? i mean NO support in the lower section. has anyone had an upholstery shop add any padding or additional support? i'm sure a set of the srt seats would solve this problem.

I would like to see the side boulsters a little bigger. At times when running aroung the cones it feels like you're about to come out of the seat, laterally. :?

my seats look great but they aren't the most confortable in the world. Not enough fluff or support.... but having said that I still love driving it.

love mine.

took me a couple of weeks to learn how to jam it back the right way so the lumbar sticks out. i don't really mind letting the motor jam it into the wall. they designed it. if it breaks, they get to fix it.

i really tested the seat for my personal needs by doin 3500 miles (houston to l.a. and back) in 4 days last christmas. best seats, for me, i've ever had in a car. i get a relaxed feeling when i settle in to the crossfire that isn't much different from when i get in the big leather recliner. not as plush, certainly, but good support in all the right places.

I wonder why they didn't put adjustable lumbar in these seats? Even a manual crank **** to dial the support out. I'm definately going to investigate some additional lumbar padding, I saw a tutorial on one of the SLK sites how to get the leather opened up so you could stuff in more padding where you want it. http://www.slk32.com I think it was.
