Yes sirs you are correct! First FTBCF power recline Sport TC seats that I know of. As of right now I lost both the lumbar and bolster adjustment features. I will be makin the bolsters functional again but i stripped all the lumbar stuff off the seats. It is possible to run all 3 if you wire it. I dont do good with wires.

Also I repaired/replaced the worn bottom bolster.outer. Once I get the dr side done Ill do a write up of how to replace the foam, re cover seats, and convert to p. recline. I have the best of everythin now, minus leather.

I was unaware these seat had adjustable bolsters. I'll have to really take a look at mine.

Yeah the  on the side, when it is twisted widens or tightens the width of the seat bottom.

You cant see it in my pic because it is deleted.

I hate the power recline. It takes forever to fix my seat after the wife takes my car.

Love it. Mine is pretty quick. Plus you get a wider range of recline. Helps when hauling parts.

I'd have to agree. I don't think I'd change these seats. I like them alot.

My set is real nice. The car itself had 86K miles on it so the seats look awesome.

I could move the manual seats alot further then any of the power ones I've had.

Really? Move how? As far as recline goes I can lay these into the back seat. Latch/manual recline is much more limited, at least the hinges I have are.
