Always wanted to have my back seat to fold down. Search hinge kits etc. Then stumbled across this. Excellent.

A competent auto sparky could make that happen.

Anyone can share how big is the room between wall and back seat? Can i fit 150mm batteries or have to get slim battery

@liamsmith322 2 жыл бұрын

No 120 mm max

so how does the seat stop from lurching forward when you slam the brakes on?

@NitrosDen Жыл бұрын

The seats are bolted together separately from that bottom bracket. When those 12mm bolts are undone, the seat back and bottom are still attached, so you remove it as one whole piece. Also the back rest is still hooked into place (hence leaving the 42mm) and will only lift up and out of bracings when the bottom seat is raised.

@mathyland5373 2 жыл бұрын

Read owner manual. Maybe different model? Seat should lift up when you pull.

I just did my 2012 Hilux to 42mm and no matter how hard i try, i cant get to lock in while in sitting position.

@mathyland5373 3 жыл бұрын

Move the bottom seat section up and down. Lock backrest when at its highest point. Otherwise tap rear panel square loops down with hammer.

@@mathyland5373 I’ll keep trying but iv given all that a try and it seems they’re cut too short on my ute they are bang on 42mm. I tried nudging the square things up but they were then to far back (like to hard up against the rear wall) for the latches to grab

Read all the comments. Do not do this . There is a lot that he doesn't explain or show in the video that you need to see or know before doing this. I don't think he's put the bolts back in on the seat back is one for a start.

@stevendegnian1248 2 жыл бұрын

it's appears that it's for a specific model as well.

@stevendegnian1248 2 жыл бұрын

The bolts are in place but later models do not hinge at the bottom of the rear seat. Your seat must have a hinge at the bottom. Mine does not. 2017 Revo model. Also a different type of catch.
