Get a driver's seat from the Mercury Mariner Hybrid or Premier edition (also available as park of a luxury package as well) as the premium leather seats include a 6 way power driver seat with manual lumbar support. In other words, the Mariner version offers a big plastic wheel on the side of the driver seat that cranks something into or out of your lower back. Find a nearby Mercury dealer and go sit in a Mariner Premier edition and see if the lumbar support adjustment makes a difference.

If you can just get the back part of the seat you should be able to swap it out pretty easily and put the existing upholstery over it. Whatever it costs its cheaper than a chiropractor or a lifetime of painkillers!
