Default Seat Locks

With out being too descriptive....what have you done to keep your almost $9,000.00 seats secure? Just looking for ideas & suggestions that actually are funcitonal. I have a feeling that as of tomorrow I am going to have a lot of trouble sleeping , since I live in a condo community with a wanna be golf cart wackenhut official!

Thanks for your comments and suggestions...

Wat up Conedodger... Yea, I spoke with Kodokan...currently, for 4 the price went up to $66.00. Not bad. I was actually thinking of purchasing 2 sets (4 bolts per seat). Of all the research that I have done the Kodokan seem the most clean and secure option. Although, I have read some very creative lockdown methods from other forum members!

Take care and thanks for your reply...

You can't use 4 bolts per seat. The bolt size is differant. The front is one size (seat locks) and the rear is another.

Thank you for that vital piece of information! I am currently not an owner of an S, but as of 2 morrow God willing I will be. Thank you very much for that fact. Thus, I will not have to shell out more cash than necessary.

Any ideas of what to do with the other two bolts than?

Thank you for your reply Stratocaster.

Leave them in, they are the rear ones anyway. If they can't get the fronts out, your seats aren't going anywhere.

Nah ... you just have to push the seats all the way to the front. Nevertheless, you need all 4 bolts to be out to remove the seat anyway.
