The only way I've heard of this done was to replace the front seats entirely with one's with lumbar support then upgrade the software. Kudos to anyone who can do this, with regular seats.

There's a guy here that upgraded his seats to the sport seats. He needed a new controller module and some programming done. In the meantime, here's a like to one of the threads like it.
