I'm pretty sure the releases are supposed to lock up under heavy braking, otherwise they are not locked. :hick:

Alright I need to hijack for a minute (still good for post topic).

I was looking at my frames again and noticed the recline hinge is removable....

I love my power recline on my standard seats so I wonder if there is any difference in the mounting of these two onto the seat frame.

I need pics of base seat frames with power recline to see if it would work though.


Anyone?

I'd bet it can be bolted right on.

Oh yeah!

I almost had every option, minus leather, roof, and vents (think that was it. Oh auto lights.

I know I am going to have to do some fab work to get the control and motor to mount as the lumbar switch is in the way (lines on bags are shot and I like being able to lay the seats ALL the way back more then having lumbar).

If anyone has pics it would help down the road also if not Ill get some.
