Ever thought of becoming a forum vender? I was thinking about getting some different seat covers and your work looks spot on.

That might be a good idea. How to do it. And how much ...

I am starting to disassemble my seats for conversion but I cannot seem to figure out how to remove the recliner lever.... It states to "Lift up on the recline lever and stick a small screwdriver in the slot and pry on it carefully and it will slide out".

I am not seeing anything that a screwdriver would press in like a clip so if someone knows how to remove it would be helpful.t will slide off".

I am starting to disassemble my seats for competition seat conversion but I cannot seem to figure out how to remove the recliner lever.... It states to "Lift up on the recline lever and stick a small screwdriver in the slot and pry on it carefully and it will slide out".

I am not seeing anything that a screwdriver would press in like a clip so if someone knows how to remove it would be helpful as it won't slide off.

Instructions:Lift up on the recline lever and stick a small screwdriver in the slot and pry on it carefully. It will slide off.

Also notice the bolster side by side.

The original thread didn't give a clear picture or understanding on how to remove the seat recliner lever so I thought that I would add some clarification to save others time and frustration.


You need to pry or lift up or outward to unclip
