I was replacing my driver's seat cover last weekend. Got the seat out and cover on without a huge amount of trouble....then I went to put the seat back in. I got two seat hold down bolts and the left rear hold down nut on fine, but when I went to put in the front right bolt, about half way in, the nut under the floor broke loose. :furious: Now all the bolt does is spin. I cant get it out or tighten it and I can't get to the nut inside the floor. And the seat flexes back under acceleration....... Any ideas as to fix this situation?

Thanks for any help.

Drill it out. all the way through the body. use grade 5 or 8 or above bolts. seal that bolt up under the body. :google:
