    Rear seat base, 1997 ZX185C

    Anybody ever replace the rear seat base? Do you have to pull the carpet back? Difficulty? When I insert the seat pole, it wobbles. Looks like the base is worn out. Contacted skeeter and waiting from price from dealer for new base. Was thinking about re-drilling the hole to a larger dia. and cutting a sleeve for the seat pole pin.

    Still need some help here. My seat base is covered by carpet so I pulled it back some but I cant see any bolts that hold the flange to the deck. I called Skeeter and they gave me a replacement part no. of 9105-0116, which is a brass bushing. If this is correct, how in the heck do I remove the worn out brass piece from the existing base? There is no lip or anything to pry against? Dealer is not sure either!
