« on: November 27, 2008, 10:42:08 am »
The drivers seat and the passenger seat both have alot of play in them, think its because they are slightly loose on the runners any ideas how to fix it? anyone else had this prolem?

Check they have the 2 little white plastic slide on things that sit on the seat subframe (what a description) as these can snap and fall off and make the seat wobble about.

yes that'll be it no doubt.  There's two legs on the back of the seat which fit into the runners on the car, these should have white plastic covers over them.

Yep, it'll be the white plastic spacer bushes which could be broke, worn or missing. There is also a clear rubber type pad near the slide lock pin mechanism to check if still in place.
