General Discussion / Chrysler 300 bucket seats
September 04, 2012, 03:46:22 pm
I don't comment much, but check the site daily and have learned a lot.  I need help and can't find anything on kine.  I'm trying to separate the back from the bottom on a 2000 Chrysler 300 bucket seats.  I've even used an impact driver...will turned the bolt, but doesn't loosen.  In feeling the bottom side, it appears it is riveted.  Anyway to get separated except drilling out the bolt?.
THANKS.

Being retired & a "selective hot rod" upholsterer for a few years, I monitor this site daily, but rarely participate.  I've always refused to do headliners, but last Spring I decided I wanted to built a 55 Chevy from ground up!!  My first attempt at the age of 68!  Well, with the help of my OLDER brother, I'm now attempting to install a pre-made headliner and it is kicking my Butt, not to mention that I've got sore spots and bruises in strange places!  I've read the instructions put out by Ecklers, but their headliner is for a 57 Chevy w/o the stainless bars across the headliner.

I'd sure appreciate the benefit of someone with experience with this particular model!
Do the stainless/chrome bar go in the HL before installation or after?
Since top of the support rods are at the rear of the headliner, should the instalation start there?    Should I wait a few years until I get more experience?  (just kidding!)
Any and all comments...and prayers are appreciated!
Dale
