    The car I just bought has a three way rocker switch on the driver seat lower side panel (it does not have electric seat controls)...I am assuming it is a lumbar support control??....but it doesn't appear to do anything i any position...anyone know the switch I am speaking of? Thanks

    Check your manual. It may have a disclaimer like "on select models" where it describes the purpose of the switch. Yours may be designed for the option of lumbar support, but doesn't have it.
