More seat aggro

[Perkio]

Some of you may remember I've been replacing the seat bushes in the last couple of weeks but have probs with the passenger seat motor/spindle kebabs, anyway Andy sold me a replacement seat base which arrived with the kebabs removed I've only now noticed the spindle threads are handed & one thread block is marked L the question is which side does one marked L go in the passenger seat,
door side or transmission tunnel?? Steve

I can't answer your question because I know little about seat bushes - sorry.

I decided to have a gamble on L being left but left as you sit in the passenger seat, I think it should be left as you look look at it from the front of the car as it all works fine now but the forwards/backwards switch works in reverse Doh!!!! Seat in, seat out.....

I can sympathise with you.
I rebuilt my n/s seat fr/r motor but inserted it all back in the casing the wrong side so now it works backwards .
I'll take it out at some point and fix it only because i know its like that

Left/right is always as sitting in the car.

Sorry can't help you on that one Steve, I've not done them myself only watch someone else do it!

My seat is not bolted in cos of my airbag issues so I could quite easily swap the kebabs over in a few minutes, I take it if I did swap them over the seat switch will then work properly? It can really only be that which is the problem I hope....
