Back Seat
Hi Guys
Another dumb question lol.
The back part of the rear seat, how does it work. This seat has a piece of tube near the top that runs from one side to the other with a bracket on
one end and a spring. The bottom has one bracket each side with a hole in it. The car body has two threads at about the same place where the seat
would sit, but it only has two short bolts and the seat is a little narrower than the location of the threaded holes.
I presume Im on the right track, is the bottom held in place by the two bolts and maybe some plastic bushes to space it out. Then the top part maybe
has some sort of mechanism on the body that the tube clicks into so the seat can fold down.
Am I close.

Could someone confirm for me, Is there 2 different back seat widths, where it bolts in, is there a bush to allow the seat to pivot on the bolt.
Thanks Trevor

hi trevor,
all 68 onwards bugs use the same back seats
the threaded holes down the bottom, lower one is for the seat belt and the one above it has the bolts that locate the bottom seat brackets
theyre specialised bolts that screw into them that hold the backseat
ive proably got some if yours are missing
theres 2 little catch things that screw to the quarter panel trim that hold the seat upright
id also have some of those too
someone will surely have pics of them

You have all the good info, now one last question. The back seat, the part that you put the bolts through, is it a nice fit against the body or is
there like a 1/2 inch gap each side. I have found those two brackets and the screws.
Thanks again
Trev

trev the gaps normal, gives the seat room to fold down
my 71 Sbug had plastic bush things but none of the others have, they're not really needed
