NHMJXJ Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Seems I misplaced the metal plates the seatbacks lock into. I know it's an impossible dream, but if you have a pair, I'm a buyer. I'd send/post pics, but as I wrote, I can't find the frickin things. These plates serve to lock the seatback in place so it won't tip forward without lifting the release. If you have them, you'll know what I mean. I partially disassembled my seats to get the old bracket off. I finally found someone to recover my seats without taking out a mortgage and when I dropped the seats off they guy asked, "what went here?", pointing to the space where the plates went. I tore my basement apart looking for them. I'd also LOVE a pair of unbroken tilt release guides for the side of the seats. I figure I may as well wish on those too. Thanks!
Kkilmer87 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I got another full set of buckets if your interested lol meet u half way again
NHMJXJ Posted February 7, 2014 Author Posted February 7, 2014 I bet they're pristine grey too, right?
johnj92131 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Saw 2 different sets of 2 door buckets on my last JY trip 2 weeks ago. The seats were trash but the tilt forward mechanism worked and held. It will be 10 to 14 days before I go back again. If those metal clips are still there - I will get them.
Kkilmer87 Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 no red and plaid almost like ones i sold u but 86 red and i just sold them lol but my buddy does still have his mint gray ones you speak of and hes trying to sell them
NHMJXJ Posted February 8, 2014 Author Posted February 8, 2014 John ... Tried to send a PM, but I think I'm blocked. Got a red pop-up saying you won't accept PM's. I'd be grateful if you could grab the plates and hardware when you get a chance. Thanks!
Automan2164 Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 I could grab a set from a JY XJ if needed. Let me know. Rob
NHMJXJ Posted February 8, 2014 Author Posted February 8, 2014 Rob, The seats are at the upholsterer now and it would be great if he had the plates. John wrote he'd be hitting the JY in a couple weeks if you imagine you could improve on the that, than "yes please"! Thanks!
johnj92131 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 If Rob can get them sooner, that is great. No reason I know of that you would be blocked. Just sent you a p.m.
johnj92131 Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 Went back today and got both of them! So if you still need the plates - send me your address so I can mail them.
