HOW TO: Quick Release Rear Seat - Page 3

Would a wing-nut fit in there instead of a safety pin?

Yup. That's what I did. New hex bolt comes thru the other way, wrench it tight. Slip seat over bolt, spin on the wing nut. Done! Works with our without passenger.

A few good ideas on here for the Quick Release Rear Seat Cowl, so I had a go myself, I had a look through my Nuts & Bolt container,
Found a bolt that came off an Old Drum Kit Pedal, bent an R clip to a 90 degree

Nice addition. Does anyone think a Linchpin (one of those circle clips) work instead of bending the R clip?

Dino7 · 11-20-12, 21:03

Yeah the Linchpin probably would work if you could get one small enough
