Backseat Latches Stiff
« on: 02 December 2021, 19:14 »
Was moving a set of alloys tonight and struggled to get the rear seats down.

Anyone know what to do if the latches to fold down the backseats are stiff? They clicked 90% of the way in but the last 10% wouldn't and took real force to get the seats down.

Are the seats possibly fitted wrong on the lower rail which it pivots on?
Sounds like it's out of alignment with the top latch where you release..
