Broken front seat - HondaClub.com

runaway229 · 08-20-2008, 05:58 PM

I have a fat "friend" that has messed up the front passenger seat on 2003 Accord. There is a hard plastic piece that wraps around the bottom of the seats. It seems there is a snap which holds the pieces together. Well, it will snap back in place, but doesn't hold when you get in an out. Any ideas?

Yes, if there is a metal/plastic snap its likely broken. This happens all the time with my plastic lower door seals as I remove them alot to run wiring. You'll have to look and see if its a small peice you can purchase or if the snap is part of the actual molding. I doubt he messed up the frame unless hes really large. But you might want to check that too!

Good luck.

Cheers,

JB

If its all plastic, you'll need to get a new one....honda may be your best bet. If your friend can fit in your car, he or she probably didn't bend the frame.
