I am ready to test fit my new GTS Classic seats in my GT project. I have done this several times in a 911 but never in a 914 before. The 914 seat removal process was pretty straightforward. Simply slide the seat forward and release the pin spring to slide the seat all the way out.
I tried doing the same thing for installation but getting the seat rails lined up with the rails on the seat slider/tilt assembly seemed to be near impossible. I did make sure the seat/seat slider assembly went together and that the seat slid smoothly in the rails before trying the installation but working alone there was no way I would be able to line up the seat rails. I am guessing that the best way to do this is to install the seat slider/tilt assembly on the seat rails slid part way so that the holes for installing the slider/tilt assembly are still accessible and then installing both in the car. How should this work?  |
