Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

We'll my little guy (almost 2) I think is now old enough to start taking rides in my cab. I've search and read the posts for the folks who have put in front-facing seats and the consensus seems to get as much space by removing all rear seat entirely. I'm stuck on the upright section (the part the pivots)...what size/kind of bolt is holding the seat on the far side? It looks like there are too many slits to be torx (and I tried all my sizes of those)...what do I need to go buy?? Thanks, Will P.S - I'm going to be putting in a radian 80 seat - narrowest base I could find at 17".

POST 2Original post

mm... check again. They are 6 mm hex on my car.

POST 3Original post

I have some spares and just checked them. They are 8mm triple square.

Not on my car - 6 mm allen - I am sure. Porsche must have changed them.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ahhhh....thats what I got on mine also (8mm triple square). Are those something you can just get at Sears or is it special?? Thanks, Will

Loren, are you sure you're not looking at the seat-back latching posts. Those are 6mm allen in my 00 Cab. The seat back swivels in my car are 8mm triple square (or star) .... and you are the one who identified them for me (on RennTech), and told me to find them (at Wiha I think) several years ago when I was repairing my Cab water drain system.

Available at Pep Boys for 1/4 the price of Sears' Craftsman or Snapon

I couldn't find them anywhere in the Atlanta area, and looked pretty hard. Loren put me onto Wihatools.com .... but I just now tried and could not find the set I bought (8 & 10 MM) with 3/8 drive base.

Kim, are there any Pep boys there in Atlanta? I got mine from them. I used them seperating my Sports Design wheels with 90 plus triple square bolts. The tool still looks brand new after all those torques.

POST 10Original post

Quotes source post: 5332038

Yes, my mistake I thought he meant the latches. I bought my triple-square set on eBay. Just eBay or Google for "VIM Tools 8 Piece XZN Triple Square Metric 3/8" Drive" Under $25 for the complete set as I recall.
