Open Bow seat removal
« on: June 22, 2010, 08:01:49 am »
I need to make a repair to the from side panel cushion. I have removed the bolts and the 2 screws along the side but the corner won't give. I used a mirror to look all around the corner but I can't find any more fasteners. Any suggestions? ???

Try pulling it up.
There are clips behind there to keep it in place.

I tried.. it lifts up at the isle corner but won't budge at the corner bend in the hull. It's so solid there that it feels like there is another bolt there but I can't see or feel it.  :-\

Check out fig. 6 on the parts page, shows where the studs are on the back of the seats;)

Thanks, I was starting to doubt figure 6. but I found the bolts. They are nearly impossible to access. there is a channel/tube in front of but below the windshield. It is directly behind the breaker panel and computer. I'll take pics and post them
