[DMCForum] Re: seat backs



Hey Mike,
This same thing happens to my drivers seat! It just pops out on the 
side of the seat closest to the door, I usually just push it back 
in, but would also love to fix it permanently. I think it happens 
when I sit in quickly, but I'm not that big a guy either!! And also, 
my passenger seat is fine, and never does this. 
Let me know if you figure it out,
Thanks,
John, Ireland, Vin 3810.
