As many of you know, i am not a pimple on a mechanic's ample backside, but, with that being said, I have a gas pedal problem and a new part,(thanks, Craig & Carter) to allow my full figured self, entrance to the pedal region of the car, i've come to the conclusion, the seat must be removed. As my luck usually goes,
i try and fix something, screw the pooch, and then need to pay someone to fix my screwup. I have released the wire fastener that holds the bottom seat cover secure. And after gazing at the conglomeration of wires and pumps and a full bottle of budweiser ??? I'm guessing i need to remove the 4 bolts on the corners, to remove one seat. anyone want to chime in here, now would be a perfect setting. pics would be better, showing up at the house with a case of beer and a tool box even more so. On a serious note, i don't want to break anything....any comments are usually appreciated...thanks in advance i think. |

As usual, I have no idea what Dynomite is talking about. Remove those four corners and as Bob said, unplug the wires and out she comes. I did this and my mechanic skills are maybe...just maybe equal to yours.
Oh yeah, and I don't need to see any pictures of you crawling in, out or upside down in your car doing this project. I already have problems sleeping.

It is easiest if you remove the seat cushion and unplug the one connector to the seat and unbolt if (4 13mm bolts - on in each corner) from the track. You don't have to mess with any other stuff, if you leave the track alone.
Then lay a pad or a few folds of a blanket over the track and have at the accellerator pedal. Otherwise, you can take the track out too, if need be, but I'm betting you won't need to do that. And, that is at LEAST a two Budwieser job, IMO! P. |

Looking at the subject line --- does your ZR-1 have rear seats?
