Which removed 7 of them very quickly (I did both front seats) and stripped the 8th and final bolt very quickly too! 
I used a torch to heat up the bolt and a wrench wit a long cheater-bar on the handle. Then it finally came out! (careful not to scorch your carpet like I did! LO!)
Good luck! |
Do you folks know WHY the bolts for the seats have that skinny, little, weird shaped head?
Because they are to DISCOURAGE PEOPLE FROM TAKING OUT THE SEATS!
If you have worn out the seat, it's time for a new car.
