lower seat panel installation how?

Post by donnam »

I need some help installing a part I purchased. It is the LH Lower seat panel where the electronic seat adjustments are housed. It cracked and I found the part but no real instructions from supplier or in the bag. Looks pretty straight fwd, but before I rip the old one off I would like some tips! I figured since the dealer wanted $100.00 there must be a trick right?Part number 39802011 Thx!

I recently removed mine to replace a torn seat cover. There is a torx screw holding the front edge of the panel. it is not easy to see as it is hidden on the inside of the seat. Feel with you finger and you will find it. Once removed lift the front edge of the panel up, you will feel it release. Then firmly lift the back end up to release the plastic spring clip. The electrics to the seat panel are in the centre under the front of the seat. You will see a screw with a spring behind it. unscrew this to remove the connector. Good luck!
