HOW TO REMOVE SEATS 1999 - 2006 Chevrolet Silverado Tahoe Suburban Yukon Sierra Escalade H2 - EASY 

I just removed the seat in my 04 suburban with a regular 11mm and 15mm socket. But thanks for the guide, just what I was looking for.

Wow.. found some well conditioned seats at the junkyard and I'm glad I looked at this video before I went to take them out. Just leaving Harbor Freight... Thanks bud for sharing.

Just watched this video. The complete E-socket is available at O'Reilly for about $30.00 and has ( 4) 3/8 inch drive E11,E12,E14,E16. ( 4) 1/2 INCH E18,E20,E22 E24. Hope this is helpful. Brand is a Titan.

For those who can't find the E20. Use a 15mm 6 point deep socket for the front, be careful but it should grip enough

Thanks for the video. Helped me a lot. My carpet was nasty so I took the seats out and pulled the carpet. I’m bed lining the inside.

in case anyone else is looking for this info, the front nuts fit a 15mm socket and the rear bolts fit a 7/16" socket perfectly. few if any videos tell you what regular sockets fit and most say just go buy an e-torx bit set for a job you will only do once in your lifetime if you are lucky

thank you for doing this video. I am rebuilding the interior of my 2004 - I did not know how to take the wiring harness apart You did it in a snap!

Just replaced drivers side seat cushion on my 03 Silverado. You can most definitely use an 11mm deep socket for the front and 15mm for the rear bolts. I had no issues with the harbor freight set. Hope this helps anyone who is looking to do this!

Needed the sizes of e sockets and that’s what I got from your vid. Thank you sir! Nice tip with the breaker bar, my dumbass probably would’ve busted one of my ratchets getting that thing off.

I have an 03 silverado 1500. I used 14mm on the front bolts and 7/16 on the back bolts. Seemed to work very well.

Great video - thanks for making it! I just had to replace the broken plastic shield on the seat slide on a 2005 GMC and came across your video. I don’t have any e-sockets that I know of and kept reading the comments and read screwdriver kelly’s comment on not needing esocket and Rex using 7/16 deep socket for rear bolts and 15mm socket which I had. Worked like a charm. I just removed the bolts on the left side of the drivers seat, removed the broken plastic shield and installed the new one and retighten bolts. All new again. Thank you Michael!!!

Got a set of impact female E-torx on Amazon for 15 bucks. Made it a simple job to patch and bedline the inside cab of my beater. Thank you!

Dude, thank you! Sanity saver for sure. Really appreciate you taking the time to do these videos!

Thanks for the help. Saved me a lot of time trying to figure it out for my self.

I didn't want to buy anything, you don't have to buy e-sockets. the back socket is 12MM deep well and the front is 15MM deep well socket - and they will come right out. worked perfectly

thank you. I was looking to remove the center console. to build a battery box for my system. thank you for your video.

You don’t need a e socket. I n a pinch a regular 12 point millimeter and or sae socket works well. It fits very tightly with no chance of stripping the head

Any videos on how to replace the lean back part of the seat

I want to lift my seat on O2 by putting washers to raise. So what is a T50 tool.

Thanks man. I have an 04 Tahoe. You made that so easy. 😆👍

Thank you for the video. Always a special tool I guess. Never would have know without your video.

I have a 2000 chevy silverado and rear bolts are e16 So I appreciate the videos. But I appreciate the right information.

Removing my middle seat for sound thanks

Is there a way to either extend the seat track or mount it further to the rear so there is more driver leg room?

Torx. The e simply means external

Thanks buddy. Not a slam on your video, but this is kind of what irks me about harbor freight. You got to go buy the whole set of sockets that you're never going to use again just to use one socket. Oh yeah and had to pick up another socket.

i should have gone to harbor freight! i went somewhere else and paid more. a size 15 will work on that e21. did it today, man there was a lot of junk in there!

On Those exe sockets I use the 15mm on the back bolts and 12mm on the 2 front lock nuts on the seat. On my 2000 tahoe. I changed the seats from a n 04 model.

Thank you for the great info, I have a 2004 Tahoe LT (with power driver seat, manual passenger seat, no airbags in seats). You’ve made it much easier for me to remove them. Getting ready to power wash my carpets this spring! God bless

You can actually find the E20 socket in stock at Napa auto parts if there’s one near you…

The plug is not an airbag sensor it’s for your seatbelt

Didn't need the breakover bar. I used penatrating oil... all else is spot on

Thank you! Very helpful!

Outstanding information, Thank you!!!!!

Thank U Boss u did the job for me and made me look like a badass lol hell yea right on

What about the seat belts that are connected to the top of the side of the cab?

You might want to tell your subscribers that the socket they need to do this job is a reverse Torx Socket set or External Torx.

I wish I would have read all the comments before I drove all the way to town to get an e14 socket because it does not fit the rear bolts. Once I read the comments somebody said it's an e16. So here I go back to town. LOL

Very helpful thanks

Very helpful, Thanks!

I have to find a way how to remove the rear seat on a2002 extended cab. I have the front bracket nuts off but the back rest is like it is welded in place.

What do we do if they have no power to move them back and forth

love the video, thank you ❤

Front bolts a 15mm socket fits them

Are the seats in the trucks listed interchangable? I want to replace the seats in my '06 ext cab Silverado

I have 2000 Silverado power seats with bad motor. changed the breaker, changed the control modualon the side of the seat. Trying to get the seat out to check the wires/replace motor. Everything I see says to move the seat forward to get to the rear bolts. How do you move the seat with no motor. Is there a trick? I can get a 15 mm ratchet/wrench on the top, but have no room to hold the bottom, which is turning.

I rounded the second one off... yeah me!

Does anybody know if the back of the seat will remove from the bottom of the seat. I took 2 bolts Out and the left side does not come loose.

Hey Folks! I want to swap my buckets and console for a bench in my 99 GMC Suburban. Are the years 99 thru 06 interchangeable? Same mounting and bolt pattern? Is a front bench from a truck the same as a suburban? Thank you ahead of time! Great video!

Excellent video!

Thank you for the sizes. But my bolts are in the tracks instead of off to the sides.

How much for the seat ? I have an '03 Chevy Silverado I need one for the driver side thanks in advance

Well done and THANK YOU!

Thought the last time I did this I had to disable the airbag under the dash. It’s a red plug. ???

good video, this helped me a lot, i have a 2004 chevrolet tahoe ls 2wd, thanks!

Alot of weed between the seat I see hahaha, thanks for the video brother !

Do you have instructions for installing the rear seats for 2013 GMC sierra?

do i need to disconnect my battery before doing this?

Does this silverado body style have the baby car seat hinges i cant find them

Do you have to disconnect the battery so the airbags don't go off?

Hey man is it possible that you can show the wiring for the top part, and heater for the power seats? Thanks in advance

Thanks man

Thanks

Thanks for video.

Thankyou so much, this video saved my sanity boss lol... Seriously though keep'em com'in.

Thank u. Very good vid

The rear socket is a E 16 not a 14 . And the front socket is a E20 as mentioned in the video

I just did it on my 99 Silverado with my trusty Craftsman little ole 3/8 drive ratchet and I think it was 11mm on front nuts and 15mm on back bolts. Both sockets we're deep well and only 6 points lol! They broke right loose except one outer back bolts I had to get on it...but I was only using a little bitty ole ratchet because I had nothing to go with my half...that 3/8 handle is only what 6" long or so lol...I thought I was going to have to get me some pipe for leverage on that last one, and than I was thinking if I had to do that I may have stripped head on bolt....but than it broke free. Mine were in great shape. I noticed this before I even started! No rust anywhere and they all 4 looked factory new in those areas...that's when I said, I bet if I can get something on these I can breakem loose without getting something at store ;)

I do not want to order the wrong socket from Amazon. Is there anyway you can reply to my comment with a link to the Female e 20? Thank you.

Can anyone please tell me where to locate the left rear bolt on driver seat? I can’t find it

How about removing the seat belt from it??? Kinda missing

Do you know if 2002 Chevy Tahoe bench seats will fit an 03 Chevy Tahoe back bench.. Are they the same bracket set up

Would they fit on a 04 silverado 2500hd??

love how the dashboard and everything is black

Regular sockets work as well, just took mine out and cleaned them OMG talk about being dirty. Used chemical guys products,all video's I've watched make that cleaning look easy. I think it was a bitch. Also used drill brush and accessory tool from carpet cleaner to do the seats and carpet. Turned out good. Also mounted seats on small pallette which was on an old office chair with back removed. Made cleaning so much easier on the seats,same seats as this young man's seats in the video.

Just to let everyone know oreilly automotive carries them or can order

Why are you parting out that truck looks in good condition man

You can just use a regular socket and take them right off . 11 and 15 mm

Hi I have a 1999 silverado with power bucket seat drivers side and center console that the back has broken on. I want to go to a non power bucket seat can I do this without refabricating the mounts?

My seat is all the way pulled toward,can't get to bolts

Guaranteed you will find some large fries under there, yes that many lmao

We are trying to remove the seats and it is VERY hard to remove the bolts.. We sprayed with wd40 and it is near impossible. Any suggestions

My seats are power and the passengers side will not slide forward or backward to get to the front or back bolts. Do you have any suggestions?

Can I put 2002-2005 leather seats in a 1999 tahoe?

Will this work on my 2001 Silverado 2wd short bed I have manual seats no rear seats cloth seats also will seats from a 05 trail blazer work in my truck , or the seats you just removed is similar to mine but without lumbar

One of my bolts fucked idk what to do now 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

What size E socket for back seat removal?

Where can I find replacement seats? It's really difficult to find seats with integrated seat-belts.

I have a 2002 silverado 1500 LS and you can get away with using 12mm and 15mm sockets

So ill basically need e 14 and also e 18?

What about the back bench??

I just use regular sockets. No stupid e tools needed.

How do u fold the backrest of the back seat

E 14 and e 20

E 14 & E20

Those rear ones are impossible!

if ypur in a pinch a 5/8 will work on the front

I believe they are called ”TORX fasteners”

Awesome! Thank you for sharing especially about the right tools and correct size. I am trying to resolve my water in-flowing into my cab problem. I already removed the third brake light and did my best to remove and remake a gasket; however, I also need to replace the pressure vents.
