    Installing seats

    I want to install new seats in my 97 180 bass.
    How are the seats mounted?
    I would like to take the old ones out without totally destroying them, and I can't see how they are mounted.

    Likely there is a smaller center cushion in the seat. Get your fingers under it and it pops out giving you access to the mounting screws.
    If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
    nothing else matters.​

    I had a 97 180 bass. If they are original seats what catfan said is pretty much correct. If I remember correct they have 4 screws under the center cushion. If you got this boat used they could have already been replaced. When I replaced mine I had to screw mine in from the back of the new seat. Wasn't happy with the way I did it but really didn't have another choice.
