Seat Frame Bolts

Recommended Posts

One of the torx bolts which holds my seat frame down has seized, any ideas on how to remove it? will the car pass an MOT if one of these is missing?

i would use as much releasing fluid as you can, get a wire brush on the rusted thread underneath to clean it up, then use as long a breaker bar as you can :)

The head has completely chewed up, i have sawn it off, thinking of heating up the nut underneath.

which one is it? the rear outeredge ones you can change the whole bracket to make life easier as it just bolts on. the front ones you can bang the captive nuts out and fit a new one if you lift the carpet IIRC.,

If it's one that comes out underneath the car put 2 nuts on it and undo it.
