Help! Deformed Sport seat side bolsters

[JimBobC4]

I have finally finished refurbishing all the wiring and the air pump system for my 1995 Convertable with Sport seats. I used both this forum and my handy dandy FSM. Thanks to all ! Everything works, moves, and pumps up like it is supposed to ! Now I just have to reassemble the entire interior.


I've also repaired the floorboards using a thread on here as well.

However, much to my dismay, the drivers side seat bolster seems deformed Like the side bolster air bag has been displaced. The passenger side is perfect. The airbladder does blow up it just makes a big buldge in the wrong place.

1. How do I get into the back of this seat to mess around? is that a zipper on the back?

2. How can I repair this? Any ideas ?

I understand you have the FSM .Section 10-10-3 describes the seatback removal. (95).

If you don't have that section let me know & I will scan it for you.

I have the preliminary copy. The white one not the red one. My section 10
says "Refer to 1994 corvette service manual". I had wondered what the difference in the preliminary and the final copy was, now I know.

If you could scan it and send it that would be great !

I also see you have a 1995 dark red metallic Z07, I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of that either.
