My Introduction and my dilemma..

[bobbyzarlinga]

Hello everyone!

I have been eyeballing the Lincoln LS ever since I lost my 1994 Cougar XR7 in 2008 when a tree fell on her in a storm. But at the time they were out of my price range and until now I didn't have a reason to get a new car. We had a 2003 Explorer sport 2 door and my wife and I are expecting our first child in two weeks, so we sold the SUV and I saw the perfect car today at a car lot. 2003 Lincoln LS. Little high on the mileage (for me) 157K but I got it for 3600 dollars. It has the 3.9 in it and it seems like it will be a perfect grocery getter. With some fun and comfort added.. Looks and drives great.. Everything seems to be great "and here is my dilemma"...

Somebody in the past seems to have pulled up the back seat (bottom cushion) and now one of those white pieces that are inserted in the floor is missing and from I have read I believe the other is broken. I guess its suppose to have a lever to unlock the seat. I have never seen plastic locks before, everything I have messed with are usually metal. If someone can give me the proper name or a place online to purchase them that would be great.

Thanks..

Those may be junkyard only parts now...

Thanks. That's what I was starting to think after 2 hours of scouring the internet for the part. lol

Good to have you onboard Bobby. So...in your "introduction", you said nothing about where you're from other than listing USA

Congrats in advance on the birth of your new addition to the family as well

Man.. Went to the local salvage yard to get the seat retainer and low and behold someone had broke one of the retainers already.. But at least I have one of them.. Its hard to find a LS in the scrap yards around here. But I found a 2000 LS V6 and the only thing I could see is a flat tire on it. Everything looked pretty awesome actually. Back to the search of finding the other seat retainer.
