I'd need a couple of measures, please - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

EUDM models don't have the 2 straps to release the back seats from the trunk.
I would like to buy all the parts from US models, but I'll have to cut the back of the seat, because it's an only piece with the seats covers, and will be too expensive.
I'd need the measures of the cutting lenght, distance from the upper and side edges, and the "thickness" of the cutting, possibly in mm, as its a more precise measure.
Thanks you very much!

Here are my measurements. 80mm from the cutout for the folding latch, 40 mm from the side edge (to the edge of the fabric, not the seat itself). The cutout is 25mm wide and about 3-4 mm thick.

Thank you very, very much! This is absolutely perfect, exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks again!
40 mm is from the fabric, with lowered seat, right? Or from the plastic side part with seat in place as in picture?

Please, do post all that was needed to retrofit those straps. I often found myself wishing them, when i tried to put something oversized in boot .. and only then seeing that i need to lower seats, and go around, rise passenger seat, crawl in, press latch buttons, then return & continuing where left off..

40 mm is from the edge of the fabric when the seat is up. The fabric doesn't reach the plastic so I don't think it will matter if the seat is up or not.

I have child seats in the back but I'll be going on a track day next week and will remove them, so I could take the measurements again with the back seats folded if you want (in a few days).

lol.

precision is not only specific to a singular measurement system

we could measure it all in spoon handles and fork tines if there were a well-defined global standard for those...

Lock Ay Right-hand 64383CA011
Lock Ay Left-hand 64383CA001
Release Cable 64343CA040VH
Release Cable 64343CA030VH
Release Handle 64343CA010VH 2 pieces
Cap Rear Back Rest 64307CA000VH 4 pieces
Item Strap 64388CA000VH 2 pieces
Access Cover Screw 904500027 4 pieces

These are the different parts, according to the EPC, included the replacement for the 4 caps that keep the seat cover in place.
I suppose not of them are needed, and even that you can drill your own locks, anyway, I'll post an update as I'll have my parts and I'll make the work.

free for the taking, but i suspect shipping would kill the deal, i've got a complete seat back with the straps i'd be willing to ship to anyone willing to pay the shipping.

but international shipping isn't very cheap!

Can source the webbing for pull straps from climbing equipment sites.
They even have festive designs woven in.

Cannot arrange someone to disassemble it? Hardly seats themselves that make up the bulk size & weight of shipment are needed?

i can send just the 2 latch parts-- as long as the mounting points are the same:

but last time i tried shipping something internationally, it was around $50-70us

Just to confirm, I had the seats folded and the 40 mm to the edge of the fabric is the same.

Thanks everybody! Now, ehm, how do I access the latches?
