Easy questions re: seats

Postby OurCognitiveSurplus » Fri Aug 26, 2011 3:53 pm

Hi all

I'm planning on installing a bracket attached to my front passenger seat to mount a fire extinguisher.

There’s two ways I can design the bracket – either with holes for the bolts do go through (in which case I would have to take the front-seat bolt out entirely OR with a sort of claw/hook arrangement so I just have to loosen up the front seats and slide the bracket in.

I would like to know if the nuts which the front seat bolts go into are welded into the bottom of the car – in which case replacing the bolts will be super easy OR are the nuts loose/detachable, in which case I’ll need to crawl around under the car to re-do the front seat bolts.

I appreciate that is a SUPER basic question. Thanks in advance for your help.

I just did the same install on my car. The nuts are welded in so no problem there :)
