Default RE: Front seat removal question

to update this, i managed to get the passenger seat out this morning. i applied some lubricant stuff to the bolts and it came out much easier than my attempt last night. still a bit of work, but at least it came out. GREAT way to clean out from under the seats. doing the drivers side tomorrow.

I would suggest to spray them down now and let them soak for awhile then.. Then tomorrow, spray them again and try to get them out.

update... the drivers side bolts will not move no matter what i do. i even tried using that pb buster stuff which was highly recommended by a friend, but even after letting that soak a bit, no dice.

id try a breaker bar, but there isnt a whole lot of room between the floor and the rear seats. i think they make a vertical bar, or one that is adjustable, correct?

otherwise i may just have to try the blowtorch method. crazy. i thought i had it figured out.

Yeah, same thing happened to mine when I was trying to install my subframes... I got 3 out of 4 and the last one wouldn't budge and I broke the top right off.. Have fun torching the thing.
