Default Welcome to C3's!

Welcome to C3's and congratulations on the '76!

4 bolts total each seat. 2 bolts, one each side on the seat tracks to floor front and 2 bolts one each side seat tracks to floor at the rear. Supposed to have a carpet tab covering the bolt, so you might have to pull that back to access the bolts. Also slide the seat back to get access to the front 2 bolts easier and slide seat forward to gain easier access to the back 2 bolts.

Be real careful taking the seat out so the seat track edges do not scratch your door panels or other parts. I usually take the tee tops off to gain some room too.

Suggest you buy a 1976 Assembly Instruction Manual too or AIM. This will show you how the seats are installed and much much more.

Best of luck and hope this might help.
