Default 89-93 Sport seats Lumbar

I need to replace the lumber bladders in my seats I am putting together. I am debating on not ding it and using the lumbar control location for my side bolsters and recline motor controls. I have 1992 seats but I am using the electronic guts from an 84 so I don't have spots for all the switches and I like the fact the the entry/exit side of the seat has no controls.

At this point I am thinking of leaving the Bladders and motors out (motors are good with exception of the membrane, which is an easy fix) but not sure i want the lumbar right now.

Does anyone use it?

and no I am keeping the bladder pumps in case i decide i want it installed later

Bladders in mine never worked properly. When I first got the car I released the air w/out knowing it...for what parts cost to fix it I decided I'd rather put it somewhere else in the car.

I replaced the baldders in my 1990 Vert and I use the lumbar every time I drive it. It used to kill my back if I drove it all weekend when my lumbar was broken. After replacing the lumbar bladders, it is a much more enjoyable ride.

OKay so far the consensus is Fix the Bladders ( may not happen right away but if it will, I need to find a place to put , either the Bladder Controls, or side bolster/recline controls somewhere. but where?
