RT Seat help
Took my seat off and thought the reinstall went well. The latch didnt line up so I adjusted it. Se the seat down and now it wont release. Not sure how to get it loose to lift it up. Help!

Press down firmly on the front at the same time you activate the release. The latch mechanism is probably a bit too tight with the new seat. Once you get it opened, just make an adjustment to the stud on the seat so that it doesn't latch so snugly.

turn the key to release and hold it while pushing down on the set
also try to wiggle the seat that's what I had to do when I got the seat too far back.
Good luck

When you get it open again,loosen the rear seat mount just a little and move the seat around until it unlatches easily. You can tighten it down with the seat closed from the rear of the. In fact you could loosen it now and move the seat until you can open it.

Not sure how but I had the seat up while working on light installation. I finished and lowered the seat and latched it. Now when I want to pop it up it doesn't. I think it got tweaked and I found that if I unlock it with the key and hold the left front part of the seat to keep it up then nudge the seat left/right and it will pop up. I've tried pushing the seat to either side when up and I guess it takes a certain alignment to get it to pop up like normal. Hope this helps. I want to put a gas door on soon! Just need to figure out what door to get as the Ford one is smaller than others.

Look up a fellow here called Blueknight 911. He has put several gas ports in on the seats, he can tell you the parts and the tricks for ease of installation.
