2000 TL-What is the lever on the side of the driver's seat?

The side that is in the middle of the car (not the window side). It is slightly below the shoulder level.

Thanks.

Ejector seat.... LOL... how funny.


Yea its the lumbar, and it does do a fantastic job. I've done roadtrips in BMW 5 and 7 series, Lexus LS and SC 430's, Infiniti G35 Coupes, and a Mercedes SL500 (04).... and I always get backaches. My car is the only one I've driven that doesn't give me any problems, and I've driven it for 17 hours, from Atlanta to Toronto.

Helps me a lot. I couldn't imagine going on a long trip without it. Otherwise I would walk like a hunchback afterwards.

I agree, the lumbar support really helps on long trips! I just drove from Denver to Memphis (16 hrs) and then to Keesler Air Force Base (Biloxi, MS 4.5hrs). My back did not bother me at all!!!
