1993 Volvo 850 GLT seat back removal, 188,000 miles

Post by Zackery1 »

Can anyone provide advice on how to remove the driver side seat back for repair of the leather? I saw how to press and remove the head rest, but I can't figure out how to remove the back support adjustor knob on the left side of the seat back? After these steps and unclamping the bottom, it looks like it will slide off. I'll appreciate help on the knob and any other tips.

This is a great forum!
