Help! early seat disassembly
While I've got the interior out of my car I found some pretty major rust (that will be another thread). But I wanted to refresh my seats, all the brackets need freshening up. But I for the life of me cannot figure out how to get this hinge apart. I'm sure I'm missing the obvious somewhere.....

Corrosion may have been holding that together a little tighter than mine but on my seats I think they literally just pulled off. No fancy tricks that I can remember. I would hit it with some Kroil and then it should work apart easy.

This was my winter project last year. Once teh two bolts are out, the hinge should just pull off the seat top and bottom. As EarlPorsche notes, it's likely rust and corrosion holding it in place. I would try spraying a bit of WD40 and letting it soak for 30min or so and then gently working it loose.

I figured that was the case, but I didn't want to pry on my old seats ![]()
