Hi,
The lumbar support in my leather drivers seat has failed & hurting my back...

How does the rear plastic panel of the seat come off without destroying it ???

Very simple - there are 2 plastic screws at the bottom the go vertically into the seat.  Remove these and the plastic seat back comes off easily.

All done - I folded a tea towel & stuffed it into the base of the seat back...
and...
My long on-going back ache is now a thing of the past....

Many thanks Pete - appreciated.
