SEAT BOLTS
Anyone know the size and where to buy the socket or wrench to unbolt the seat from the floor?
I'm wanting to remove the seats to see if there is room to install an amp under the seat but can't find a socket to fit the odd Torx style bolt.

That's it, 14mm 6 point or 12 point socket works. It's the same as the rear seats.
I believe the torx size is T-30 (female/socket) |

Snapon seem to call this tool a E10, E4, etc... female torx. I found it on few tool sites by searching for "female torx"
Here it is on Snap Ons website: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....re&dir=catalog Here it is on Sears website: http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/produ...seBVCookie=Yes Here is a link to it on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/11-bits-FEMALE-E...QQcmdZViewItem . |
