i washed my car and moved the seats so i could hose out around them.
when i finished the bastards wont stay upright the leaver just moves without locking the seat in the right spot.
whats going on and how do i fix it?

they stay like this. the leaver on the slide is locked properly but the seat back one doesn't.

they are the seats out of my old wt hardtop. cant easily remove them as i welded them in :lol:

i ended up getting them to lock by flogging the leaver with a hammer. i think the gurni
blew a heap of crap into the mechanism.

and it isnt dodgy as i used a dead blow hammer 8) :lol:

i nearly welded a piece of rhs across the car so the seats stopped at the right spot and then
put a heap of tec screws through the seat to stop it springing forward. 8)

lucky that i tried the hammer again before getting the welder out.
