F30 adding lumbar support to electric seats
Hi everyone,

A friend of mine is willing to swap his seats with mine ones.
I have the facelift ones, electric and memory without lumbar but he has the same as mine + lumbar. Ofc, they are pre-facelift, so without the chrome controls.
2 questions, do I need extra wires for lumbar to work?
And also if the facelift controls are compatible with the pre-facelift seats? 

Thanks

Yes you need extra wires (+) 1 pin for lumbar support, and by the way seat control unit is different. Pre facelift ECU work on CAN, facelift work on CAN2. And as I know button are similar

Checking newtis now and can’t see new wires.
My car is 2012 and I have facelift seats full electric. I’m swapping to full electric pre-facelift + lumbar support.
I might have to look better and check the differences between facelift and pre-facelift wiring diagram.
Thank you

It's in the separate diagram, you need extra power supply for valve block of the lumbar support

Just fit them in and everything works straight away, no ista, no coding.
The only issue is the driver side and seat controls are inverted. When i want the seat to go down is going up smile
Any ideas?

Thanks

Everything is sorted.
CAFD was missing, doh.
Did the seat standardisation and now everything as as is should.
No extra wires needed, lumbar has power and everything

Thanks
