Hi,

You will recall that I was asking about seat slides? And thank you for your
answers. 

I've done one side. Replaced the big nuts and bolts holding the slides to
the floor with the correct "Tee-nuts" and the bolts holding the seat to the
slides also.

Horrific looking welds but (a) they're strong enough (b) they're hidden (c)
I hope to improve with practise.

 

Now, my car is a UK based RHD so I've done the driver's side and am
beginning on the passengers side. I was much hindered by the silencer
(muffler?) but that came off OK. I was able to get the wretched nuts & bolts
off without removing the insulations sheet. There were only 5! One had been
replaced by a grommet! (Cretin!) But that sheet will have to come off in
order to get the flat washers up against the outside of the floor.

 

So..the sheet was, apparently, held on by - I forget - say, 4 nuts and big
flat washers. I took them off easily enough, BUT the sheet won't drop down!
It looks as if it's entirely unsupported, no fasteners visible etcetc. It's
not wedged under anything. It feels like it's attached to something
underneath ie between the sheet and the floor.

So far I'm stumped. Has anyone else had this problem. What's going on? I'm
trying to get my sheet together and not getting very far.

Thanks,

Simon
