how to tighten seats

hi my power driver seat on my iroc is super loose and will move around when driven and both front seats fold down with very little pressure and i mostly want to know how to tighten down the seats because it gets scary when you start slipping away from the steering wheel. and are the seats easy to remove with the power option as i would like to have a better reach in the interior to clean it. thanks.

Re: how to tighten seats

What is loose? If it is just the floor mounts.....Tighten the nuts. As long as the floor studs are tight in the floor, that'll stop that.

To provide a bit more room to work, raise the seat to its highest position. Disconnect the harness under the seat, remove the plastic pieces that hide the floor pan bolts, unbolt, lift out. You might also check the seat track to cushion bolts for tightness.
