Ferrari Mailing List: Half a u-nut good enough for seat nut repair

[Michel Savard (mysavard]

I fixed my passenger seat bolt with a missing nut under the car on left front corner with a half u-nut. I put the u-nut between the floor and the seat-rail. If you look carefully on the final picture you can see a corner of the half u-nut under the rail. Last week I sent a picture of the u-nut as I bought it. The 2 pictures today are u-nut cut in half and then once installed. You need to put the 2 back bolts in very loose first and then lift the front part of the seat-rail to squeeze in the half u-nut. Push back the seat on floor. Tighten everything up. That’s it.
