Rear seat catch releases not working

**outnumbered** · 03-02-2013, 06:19 PM

One of mine wasn't working today, and then the other one also stopped working too as I was poking about to see what was going on. Anyway, the following thread was helpful in fixing it:

Only problem was that the seat latch mechanism on one side wouldn't come out when unbolted, so I gave it a bit of "persuasion", and it came out, but a plastic bit broke off the latch cable, so now I need a new one of those.

The way the cable hooks into the latch is really weak, so I'm sure others of you have had/will see this on your cars.
