Thanks, How do I get the rear seat bottom back in place? Can t get that front hook on one side back in, seems like front hooks have too much angle ??
BTW, cars has remote start!

Mine required a little bit of tilting to slide it far enough under the seat back, but also to make sure all the belt buckles went through the appropriate slots.

Don't make the mistake I did and do it when it was in the single digits, busted one of the plastic clips which for some reason are oddly expensive.

so maybe those rear tabs need to be under first before attempting the front hook?

I am having trouble visualizing it right now but I absolutely put the rear most part of the seat bottom in first, then pushed down the front into place.

Sorry I just posted on other section but at what angle does the front hook sit at? Up and down, or heavy angle back? Thinking someone may have bent it and don't want to bend it back until confirmed. Thanks.

With the camera above the plate, do you have one in the trunk lid? That is a neat place for one. I might have to look into it for my 14.


Also, you spot under the heater controls, something is missing, my has a pocket with a 12v socket In it.
