    The pictures say a lot, but do you think any translation is necessary say, for some not-so-obvious step in the process?

    Reach into that hole between cover and tube and locate the end of the zipper that was stuck in there during assembly. Pull it out, with absolutely no force necessary.
    Uzip it all the way up.
    looking at the bottom of the seat back, undo the horizontal plastic strip that holds the cover together, and most important, remember how it was put together.
    Now you can access the insides of the seat back.
    was there really a zipper? BTW thanks for this! i had a very hard time inserting my headrest cables when i was installing it. I had to feel the cable from the back of the seat cover just to align it from the bottom right hole from the driver seat, same goes for the passenger side!

    Very funny!
    That quote leads to a German post on a German forum refering back to, and roughly translating the "HOW TO add lumbar support" post No. 6 of this thread!

    Glad to have been of some help.

    Foama

    It was not ment as a joke or either that I would not be thankful for your post.
    I just saw the thread on the German forum, and actually I haven't read this hole thread before your posted above, because I don't have problems with the seats

    You know, if we could add those pix into post 6 of this thread, we'd have a perfect write-up, worthy of being on the forum start-page!


    Main thing we preserve our sense of humor! If we couldn't laugh about ourselves any more, we'd be ready for the grave...

    I think Doax or MetroMPG can move the pictures to the right post, or maybe you can add it yourself?
