My 4000th post, and I need guidance.
I think I am officially veteran now, but that's not what this thread is about.
I'm cleaning my car (yeah, again) and for some reason it is dirtier than ever, with stains all over the carpeting. I'll take it to a pro detailer soon for that but right now I'm doing all the light work which for the very first time will include removing the seats. I want to do this within the next ten minutes. Problem is, I don't know how to take the seats out. I can already hear the petition to recount the veteran statement.  Anyhoo, I'm sure this is pretty simple, but i've looked over the rails and I can only see one screw/bolt. I looked in the How-tos, there is nothing, I searched unsuccessfully. If someone could post a quick guideline to doing that it would be great. -- On a different note I fiddled with my stereo today and found a setting that puts out way more bass from my stock speakers than what I had it on. I turned it down a little because I don't want to blow them up, but I heard this very annoying rattle/buzz. I found it out to be the driver's door handle on the outside. Is there a way to tighten that up? -- Something unrelated: My camera no longer feeds video for some reason so it will be a long time before I have any new pics of anything. Wheels are coming first and will empty my car funds temporarily again. I'm going for the 18inch x7.5 silver KZ-As on (maybe) Kumho Ecstas. Unless I wait til spring or can be persuaded into a different wheel. I know I've said I would get Centerlines, and Rotas, and whatever in the past but I am serious this time.  -- SVXFiles: If your friend is still moving to AK and if that fg hood is still possible to be packed in there and if it's any time soon I'd like to make that happen.  If not, it's cool. --- I'm going to mess with the passenger seat in the meantime and see if I can figure it out.

Might as well mention I am moving across town to a cheaper
 duplex (single car-gar) tomorrow and taking the weekend in Detroit (East sy-eed!)  to visit some relatives.--- Ok I figured out the seats. It took a quick look and I realized I was missing more trim pieces which is why I could see a bolt. I took off some plastics and I see 6 bolts. Is there more? (ed: There is 5.) Whoever owned this thing before me did not take very good care of it. >:( ---- Argh! Some dope ground the edge of my only 14mm wrench so if I pull too hard on it it will snap apart, and these bolts are wicked tight. My only 14mm socket attaches to my smallest ratchet so I can't get any leverage DDDD: Off to the store....

Haha, yeah it kinda crept up on me.
-- Passenger seat is out. Man it's beautiful. So much room to put stuff in there. --- Got me some WD, white lithium grease, and a shiny 14mm socket. ---- YAR, THAR BE TREASURE! I found a Chuck E. Cheese token dated 1996, and it's like glued to a corroded penny dated 1965. :O

The best thing that I have found to help with bolts or nuts that are frozen on is P B Blaster. It is amazing stuff.

I WDed the bolts at the parts store (opened al my windows) and a few minutes later at home they came off pretty easy. I got a socket for my uber big pivoting wrench so I had some good leverage as well. Took about 3 minutes to get it out. I could probably use some P B stuff for the bolts on my undercarriage. Now I am off to check out the exhaust system my friend installed on his new 03 WReX.
