Seat Bolts Removal - How Big a Cheater Bar?
I'm trying to remove the front bolts from the drivers seats so I can install the Tuffy Concealed Carry storage drawer. They don't seem to be moving and I'm going to add a small pipe on to the wrench to gain leverage. How long should be enough? Have others had the same problem, and if so, the solution?

I had the same problem. I read on here that it is normal, so I just stuck a long hunk a pipe on the breaker bar and the bolts broke loose with no problem. I tied a rope from the door frame to the mirror to keep the door from hitting me. I guess I could of popped it off and laid it on the ground.

Be careful when you manouver with this combo ... it's easy to slip, hit or scratch the door or the interior.
