Default Seat bolt tool

Hey all,

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this thread. I had to pull the driver seat this weekend, got all the bolts off OK, but there is one big a** bolt that holds down (for lack of a better term) an "arm" that runs along the right side of the seat.

I didn't have the proper tool to remove it, and wasn't keen on buying one.

Anyway, I found out that a garbage disposal tool works perfect - the tool that comes with the disposal, that you put in the bottom of it to manually turn the thing if it gets a rag or something stuck in it.

Hope this helps someone...

Thx
Matt

Matt...

The proper tool is a T47 (I think) or larger torx. Sounds like you used an allen key which is similar.
