The side bolster on the driver seat in my '94 model had a little wear on it from use over the years. I ordered some dye from The Seat Doctor and had at it. Pulled the seats out, cleaned them good and applied the dye. Turned out great. Vacuumed out underneath while they were out.
My question is this: does the release lever for the seat back go on the front inside or outside corner? The seat frames look to be the same other than this. I swapped the lower cushions thinking that may get even wear and make them last longer. Got to looking at the seat backs and figured I could do the same. The driver seat I took out was installed with the release lever on the front right inside corner. Looking at the mounting points I can see that the seats had been out before. I reinstalled them with the driver's seat lever on the left front outer corner.
Anyone have a car that has never had the seats out that can tell me the correct position for the release lever to be located? Works fine either way. It makes more sense to me to have the lever on the outside corner. Just curious.
Pics below of before and after with the driver seat in the previous position. Swapped sides after the pic was taken.
Let's see how long the dye job lasts.
