I may have made a bone headed move. I removed the original driver’s seat to help me with another install. Now I can’t get the dang seat back on. The back foam tabs keep popping out. Any suggestions? Thanks.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I will try to explain how I have done mine. You have the long bolts that go through and starting threading into the nut that keeps slipping. I put a piece of painters tape on the outside of the nut to hold it in place and slowly started threading the bolt. I've done this a bout 3-4 times now. Works good. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I’ve added a picture. I don’t believe I need to get to any screws, unless I have to take the entire seat off.

From that picture it looks like the trails of that seat have to be in the slots below the tabs!! So the only way that is going to happen is remove the pad enough so you can get them started in those rails! The seat must come apart from the front and slide forward to take apart!! Good luck! The seats got to come off and be reinstalled in the seat pan!
If you have the max mount the paper clip method won't work. The only way to get that back on is to split the clamshell, raise it 5 inches and pop the seat on. It sounds like a lot of work but it's not. Job can be completed in 45 min. 15 min to open shell, 15 for seat and 15 to put it back together. You already spent more time trying to figure it out lol.

Thanks. The clamshell was the way to go. It was more work since I really didn't know what I was doing. I did watch Bill R's video, but things are never as easy as it looks in the video. I've learned my lesson on this one!
