You know the plastic around the buttons on the rear seat to unlatch them to fold them down...is it possible to change it? One of mine is partially broken.

It is, but they are a serious PITA to remove without breaking them. I had to take mine out so that I could get the seat cover off and send it to the apholstery shop. Both rings broke when I tried to take them out. They are simple plastic clips that are pie shaped so that they snap in, but don;t want to come out. You'll need to get both clips in order to get them out with out breaking them. I knwo yours are broken, but if you find someone with a spare rear seat or a junk car to pull from I thought this might help. The metal latch that is inside the button can be removed with a couple bolts that are hidden under the seat cover on the back side.

.... or just swap the seat back! that's what i did anyways, surely it can't be that hard to find a good condition seat?
