ok so my power seat motor on my 95 took a dump on me yesterday, so im just going to temp. fix it for now by switching out the drivers seat with the pass. seat. so i got the bolts off on the back but since my g/f was driving it she had to move the seat all the way forward so now its pretty fuckin hard to get to it to unbolt it...any ideas? [Confused]

i dont know for sure but im almost certain b/c since ive had the car its always been super slow moving forward and back...i couldnt even move it if i was sitting in it...

oh well, i wanted to change the seats out for newer ones anyways b/c the last owner had a dog in the car and its hairs are still deep in the cracks so maybe thats what ill do...
anyone have any leather seats they want to sell??? NO TAN though [Big Grin]
