Rear seat fixings question

So.
The rear benchseat has 2 trailing hinges attached.
I can see the pin coming out of the chassis they're supposed to hook over and attach to, but am flummoxed as to what to lock it down with.  So at the moment my rear seat slides about a bit more than it should.

The pin extruding is not threaded, but has one single groove - looks like maybe some kind of retaining spring clip goes over it?

Anyone any ideas, or even a couple of spare?

thanks muchly

(can upload pics later if that description's not clear  :? )

Hi mate,

They are like a folded metal clip thingy that fixes into the grooves. I currently have my interior in the garden.

Is you look at the rear boot gas strut, that is attached by a similar type clip at either end.

There is no better way of describing it other than a wierd clip thingy.  I reckon though that you could get an 'R' clip the right diameter and it would work fine

Try ebaying/google and search for circlips. They should do the same job as the proper 'thingy' ones. Not sure what size you will need. Hope that helps!

ITs been bugging me now what the different names of these clips are and the ones you require are called 'SLM Safety fasteners'

nicely widdzuk, and birtymeek - nice to see new folks being as helpful as the old hands

Cheers plurker. I only know because of taking mine out the other day
