Seat track fitting

[J2Gmaddog]

I'm working on fitting replacement seats in my e30, but passenger seat rear left bolt isn't lining up or threading. Any ideas to get it to align and thread correctly? Thanks

Wiggle the seat and pry things if absolutely required. Make sure you didn't do something dumb like cause the runners to be set to different notches or tightening the nuts down all the way in front.

Got your tongue poked out slightly? I find it works best when i poke it out just slightly to the left.

In all seriousness i found the last time I put a seat in that one of the bolts had slightly bent. if this has happened to yours bend it back without ruining the threads.

This is the most common issue and a disconnected cross bar is right behind it.
