Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

bought the b&k fire bottle bracket that mounts to the frame under the driver or pax seat. Ok, what's the deal with puilling the seat out. I see only two bolts, they are in the seat traks on the back part of the seat and who knows what socket might fit- they have a weird hex head. Thought this was gonna be easy...
They're Torx bolts. There are also two bolts at the front of the seat tracks.
However, it is possible to fit the BK extinguisher mount without removing the seat if you take it to its highest position, although it's such a hassle that it might be easier to remove the seat altogether (ask me how I know...)
Use an E12 Torx Socket to get these bolts removed... I had some trouble finding this socket, but purchased one from a NAPA store. Sear may sell a set as well, else you can find online.
The front seat bolts are located under plastic covers that slide over the top of the seat tracks. Look closely, and you will see a small, flat "finger" of plastic about 1/4 inch wide. Gently pry up this piece with a small screw driver and slide the entire plastic covering forward and off. You don't have to pry it very far. DON"T BREAK IT. You will now find the two front mounting bolts. When finished installing the seat, just slide the covers in place until they "click".
Regards,
It's also worth noting that these bolts aren't round, there sort of three-lobed. They are designed to cut threads, and will do so, making it particularly easy to cross thread them.
