Fred did you remove the seat to do this?
For those interested.

I spent an hour gaining access to the lumbar adjustment in the seat. This meant disconnecting two serial cables and gaining access through the upholstery in back.

There is a cable (similar to a throttle cable) connected to a small electric motor that increases and or decreases the tension on the lumbar.

I simply unhooked that cable on each side of the mounting point, which in turn completely reduced the tension that was resulting in the uncomfortable lumbar.

So thanks for the input. No new seat needed. The seat now functions similar to the passenger's side seat.

I am looking to INCREASE the lumbar support. I was hoping I might be able to add some additional padding on top of the lumbar support - do you think that would be possible? I'm presuming I'll have to remove the seat cloth to do this?
