Can you access the bottom of the bucket seat by removing the seat back? I plan to add more foam cushioning to the rear of the bucket seats to lift it up. The OEM seats gave me sciatica because they caused my hips to be pushed inwards and my knees to be higher than my hips. Fantastic car, terrible seats.
Hey Jon, just found your video and subscribed since you have some great content. One quick question that plastic seat back you are showing in this video that falls out once you remove the headrest how hard is it to completely remove it and replace it with a new one? I ask since my son scratched the back of the passenger side plastic seat back and i am thinking about picking up a used model 3 seat back from ebay. Thanks. Doug
It's looks pretty easy to remove the seat back. Once the headrest is out, the top tips back and you'll see where the bottom just sits on a couple of hooks. At that point the plastic piece can just be lifted out. There is a piece of vinyl fabric that extends from the plastic seat back down under the seat. Unhooking that piece will probably be the hardest part, but shouldn't be too bad.
There is a metal clip on each post that locks it in place. Here's a more clear view of how to release it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J4vIBNx0rBQ.html
I released the clips and removed the headrests but trying to put them back in and the retaining clips are not locking in. They came right out and can’t get them lock in place. Any tips?
