has anyone replaced their seat covers? ive tried when i was going to recover them in suede and leather.........i couldnt get the giant screw out that holds the seat back to the bottom. and now i bought the rennbay seat covers and i cant get that giant screw out again. any tips?

 

On my 87 there are 2 bolts per side that secure the seatback, I guess early was different.

Have you tried a screwdriver impact wrench? One of those deals that you hit with a hammer?

 

kinda had something like that........i dont think ill get them in for 944 fest.

 

Please let me know how the installation is on those sea covers. Hear great things about them and thinking about getting them. A bit worried about the installation though.

 

I have a tip on the rear seats. I removed the rear seats on my '89 944 so I could put sound proofing dynamat under them (like I also did to the rest of the car). After applying the dynamat, I had difficultly getting the rear seat bottom back in because the dynamat made it half an inch higher. So I didn't put the spacers/washers onto the seat belt clips which hold the seat bottom down. This caused the bolts to protrude under the car which made a tapping sound against the driveshaft. The repair shop put it on a lift and quickly found the cause of the sound and I put the spacers back in and solved the problem. No big deal, just make sure to use the spacers/washers.
