Lumbar support?

[Melinda Mulcahy]

Thanks so much. I've made a little headway, but still have pieces I can't get connected. I've made a video showing the images and explaining the mechanism.

There are a few threads on NAM with how-tos, which you might find helpful. Here's one:

I couldn't find one for the F56, but I imagine not much is different vs other models.

Edit: oh wow it looks like you already posted in that thread! Sorry, hope you can figure it out.

See if you can hook the wire to the bottom corner of the cage itself (it's the same dark black coating) . You will have to test with the knob for max-min lumbar support to see if you hook in the front or behind?

Thanks. Unfortunately, the casing around the cable has a stopper that limits how far I can turn the knob. Unless the hook is wrapped further around the frame, the cable is too long to tighten the cage.

Oh for a second I thought it almost fit.

This is making me want to buy that kit. I like a good puzzle...

in your slide at 55 seconds, about two inches up there is a square box. can you hook it to that. all it looks like you are doing is locking that cable so it doesnt twist. Will that square on the left hold it?

Were you able to make any progress on this?
