    I bought a set of acclaim seats front and back for $20 off ebay. Ifyour going to replace them atleast get some that are bolstered if you havnt already got them. The exec ones are pretty crappy.

    Do you mean that the seat reclines over a period of time by itself? There is a fix on this, do a search it seemed pretty easy when I read it.

    okay.. uhm, i know this is like over a year old.. but i'm going to steal it.. okay so my seat leans back too, at first i thought the person who started this had the same issue, but read through and no... so anyway, my seat leans back, some kind of mount has broken at the front right of the seat, right beneath the thing the seat slides back in... i found the problem, and took a picture of it. however; i dont know how to/if i can fix it. could anyone be of some help? (my car is a vn, i just didnt wanna start a whole new thread..)

    The second picture is to show where its broken, them two peices should be together. (that is with the seat leaned back so i could get a bit better veiw of where the problem is.) Thanks allot guys.
