Ok, so this all started when my son threw up in my Jeep a few days ago. Got it on the back seat, and no matter how much i scrubbed it...it was still a horrible smell. So, i read the nice write-up about removing the seat covers and figured what the hell, i'll take mine off and throw them in the wash. Well, the back seat worked just fine. It's nice and clean...smells great now. The front is where i'm having the problem. I dis-assmebled the passenger seat, but there's a system of wires built into the seat foam, and i can't get the cover off. Anyone know how to do it? This is for a 97+ the write-up i read was for a 90 IIRC. Any help is appreciated!

 

sounds like you have seat heaters

 

No, they're not seat heaters although that would be nice! The wires run along the seams in the seat covers, to keep them attached to the seat foam.

 

Anyone taken apart 97+ front seats?

 

i have not but i am betting that those wires are for the seatbelt relay. maybe some pics and maybe you could just still remove it and there might be a way to disconnect them from the fabric itself?

 

I'll have to take some pitures and post them later when i get home. It's not for anything electrical it's like coat-hanger type wire.
