Nice clean work. Underneath looks great, as well as the interior. What is the little hand pump next to the driver's seat, is that for lumbar support?

Great job.....

Great job.....
Yes, that is the lumbar support inflator/deflator. After sitting in these seats I've decided to keep the lumbar support deflated. It just feels more comfortable.
