Title: Seat Bolts
Post by: whippit on 04 March 2011, 21:30:18

Can anyone tell me what size the bolts are holding the front seats in?
Well the key size anyway.
A TX40 seems close but not quite and they are so tight I dont want to round them.
Is it a metric spline?

I'm pretty sure it's a male T40

You could offer up a T45 and see - but I think you'll find that too tight.

Hopefully someone will confirm :y

T45 too big, Maybe its just my T40 being a bit worn, I'll get a new one ;)

You can use a T30 or T35 to undo them...T40 does fit but its tight...

Strange, problem I have is that T40 is too loose.

Any joy with courier yet? ;)

As long as you don't have to bash it in there, you should use the tightest fitting one possible... I'm almost convinced it's T40 on the seat bolts :y
