You are missing the idea... TAKE THE SEAT OUT... There are 5 bolts that hold the seat to the car...remove them.. The plastic covers pop off...take a screwdriver and pop them off..

Ya you HAVE to take the seat out... and don't back your seat all the way back while its broken! I did that and paid my mechanic like 1 hr, (took 2 hrs) to take the chair out since the bolts in the back were not accesable. Those pics of course are when the seat was out of the car.

Yes, I know that! But what Im saying is the plastic covers DONT just pop off....you could just do that and break all the screw assemblies, but to do it correctly there are 5 or 6 screws that are holding that cover on at various points.

You need to PM me your telephone number.... you are missing the picture here.
Your seats are meet the FLOOR of the car in 4 places. Held down with 5 bolts. The place where you see the seat hit the floor is where you need to remove the cover. The cover with the screws is the wraparound plastic shield for the motors... that WILL NOT HELP. You need to pull the ENTIRE seat.
These 4 seat mounts are covered with small plastic beauty covers to not show the bolt. They pop off.
Maybe that may help you... That is the seat out of the car. You need to get the WHOLE thing unbolted... Takes 5 minutes

OK, I found a plastic screw...not sure if its the same one.
The screw I found has a 6 headed thing on one side...and the other side has 4 threads (like a screw). Its white-yellow. Its about the size of a penny. Is this it?
