My car does not have 914 seats in it, but it appears to have the correct 914 seat rails/brackets. They have the lever on the side that tilts the seat forward or back, and also releases completely in the front to tilt way back. I can't figure out how the heck to slide the seats forward or back. I'm thinking maybe I'm missing something? Please help! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Alignment is everything with sliders that are gooped up with old grease, hair, french fries, etc. Have someone get on the opposite side of the seat you want to move and pull up on the stub while you firmly push/pull the seat forward. The pressure needs to be low and in-line with the sliders. It will not work if you pull forward on the headrest. It goes easier once you get them moving. WD40 will really help. Once you get the seats out and all of the goop cleaned off, coat the sliders with paraffin wax. The wax will stay cleaner then grease.
Good luck! -Jeff |
