Trying to fit my passenger side sport seat. Got the old seat out no bother, but I cant get the new seat in.
The problem is that the thread on the seat seems to be worn, and the bolt wont catch. Its at the front, so i cant put a bolt right the way through.
Any suggestions on repairing a busted thread?

Its usually the old bolt that causes the issues....
Try a new bolt and if that fails..... grab a tap and die set and do a new thread
