Seat side bolster adjustment

Just wondering if the driver seat has electric side bolsters on Sensatec seats or must you add lumbar support to get this option?

You have to choose vernasca leather to get side bolsters and lumbar support currently.

If I remember right it means your car is in 150 status and you wont be able to make any more changes once it gets to that stage

You might want to check with your dealer asap.

You are correct. Once there is a vin assigned you can't make changes.

This is weird because the G20 gets adjustable bolsters/lumbar with Sensatec and they appear to be the same seats.

I believe the deletion of bolster and lumbar from Sensatec is all due to the chip shortage. I went with Sensatec because I never used lumbar and rarely used the side bolster when I owned my Corvette. The $1,450.00 extra for leather was just not worth it for me personally.

I presume the G20 being a higher price class has the priority for chips for the seats.

To be honest, I am glad none of the other options I spec'd (touchscreen, wireless charger, HUD, HK audio, etc) on my car got deleted. I was personally OK giving up on lumbar and bolster adjust on the sensatec.
I do wish that that they offered the red sensatec similar to G20.

I am in the same boat as you. It makes it even harder to option it knowing the passenger seat has the lumbar and bolster adjust deleted even after paying for the leather.
