Abstract

A vehicle seat bolster is adapted for attachment to a seat back, wherein the seat back has first and second sides and front and rear portions. A center portion of the seat bolster is removably attachable to the rear portion of the seat. First and second opposing arms extend from the center portion. Each arm includes a distal end which is removably attachable to the respective first and second side of the seat back such that the seat bolster provides lateral support for the seat back. The seat bolster is quickly disconnectable from the seat back for removal and installation of similar bolsters with varying load carrying capacity.
