How To Fix Broken Seat Backs On The Mk6 !!!


Recommended Posts

Hi Peeps !!! :big_wave:

 

 

 

 

Got a broken seat back on your Mk6 ??? :huh:

 

 

Me too, I had to scratch my head and had a hard think how to fix it without Glue or Screws !!! :msg3:

 

 

 

I came up with this !!! :wow:

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE AMAZINGLY SIMPLE WAY TO FIX YOUR SEAT BACKS !!!

 

 

 

 

 

(1) - On the Passenger back, Drill a 6mm hole in each of the 4 broken clips !!!

(2) - Feed a Standard Cable tie through the hole thats in the vinal at the bottom right !!!

(3) - Next feed another Cable Tie through the metal support rods as shown at the Top Right !!!

(4) - Do the Same on the Left hand side !!!

 

 

 

(5) - Feed both top Ties through both top clip holes on the seat back, don't compleatly tighten !!!

 

 

 

(6) - Next, feed the bottom Cable Tie through the Lower Clip hole, tighten them all up !!!

 

 

 

(7) - You will notice that one corner does not have a Cable Tie, I could not get one on, plus you need it open to get to the top ties !!!
