Default New C5 Owner

I am the proud owner of a navy bue/tan convertible C5, my first corvette. Before I bought it, I was browsing through the forum and remember a thread or 2 about the drivers seats rocking. I cant find a search feature on here so can anyone guide me to the threads that covered this? My seat rocks a little and I want to fix that.

Welcome to the fray! You gotta post pics!


Search feature is located on upper right side of each forum page, NOT the home page!
