August 19, 2010 Great information. The photos and instructions were much appreciated. Here's an addendum from my experience installing the strut last weekend: The strut does not just snap off/on with finger pressure, at least mine didn't. And it was hard to pry loose.

Thanks very much for all of your responses. It's been cold and icy here but when things warm up a bit, I'll get to work on the seat. Found out I had a stuck thermostat (engine) and that's why virtually no interior heat, so I can wait awhile now on warming the seat. About the recall on the seat: I ca...

Cleaned out the lint from both, but the lights are still flashing, even though the AC/htr system works ...
