Removing seats

GTP1997

New member
Hi folks-
I find myself with a need to remove the passenger seat and back seat in a 97 GTP coupe. I know the seat in the back just pulls out with a quick release, and the passenger seat you just keep unbolting things until it lifts out, but what about the back of the back seat? I see a handful of nuts at the bottom of it, but are these what holds it in place? Any general advice or potential pitfalls with pulling seats that I should be aware of? Thanks for any answers.
 


Front seat...slide forward remove the two 15mm holding the back of the seat tracks.. then lift and out.

Rear seat bottom
Pull clips and lift front.

Rear seat back
Remove two large bolts holding seat at the seatbelts and two other nuts holding thinner straps. Lift straight up and it's out.
 
Thanks very much. Know the sizes of the nuts on the seat back by chance? I don't have a very complete wrench set and I want to make sure I get everything I need when I run to the store.
 
im thinking the seat belt bolts are 18 mm for the back seats, and you may need a 10 mm deep as well, i did on my regal anyways.

a simple adjustable wrench can get them off if need be.
 
Thanks guys. I'll just grab a set that goes that high. Can never have too many metric wrenches in the house.
