Default Damn this Momo seat

Okay first off installing this was the biggest PITA ive ever had to deal w/ for the S After 6...yes SIX hours I was finally able to get this damn thing in. But the seat wasnt slide back and forth " smoothly" enough for me. I should have left well enough alone...but knooow, "I wanted it to feel like my stock seats" ( in whiny kid voice ) . So I decided with all my wisdom to try to adjust the seat. well long story short I just spent 2 hours trying to whiggle the rail a 1/2" to place the last bolt...no luck. So I despretly am trying to get away w/o having to take this F N'ing seat out again. So if anyone wants to help I can drive to ur place or you can come to mine and pizza and beer will be provided. text me @ 760 458 3511

take the whole thing apart, loosly put the seat onto the rail with the 4 bolts, set the whole thing in the car, get all 4 bolts to the car started and finger tight, then make sure the seat is pushed either fully back or fully forward on the braket so as to ensure its not binding as you slide the rail forward and back, then tighten the 4 bolts to the car, front first then back and then tighten the 4 going into the seat after.

hope that helps man

that is a great explanation right there . I actually had aftermarket seats in my car as well and I installed them with buddy club rails. I am scratching my head though as in why you are having issues?

^ its just that one of the rail holes is not lining up w/ the bolt hole. its as if the rails are bowing in. If tried to put them in loosley but no matter what, one of them end up not lining up. very frustrating.
