I just removed the seat in my 04 suburban with a regular 11mm and 15mm socket. But thanks for the guide, just what I was looking for.
Thanks alit saved me 77 Bux for those e sockets... Lol
I was just looking for the size cuz I'm a lazy Canadian thanks a lot brother cheers
Just taking my 02 Avalanche drivers power seat out. Mine is 11mm in back and 15mm in front. My socket set is 12 point so it fits everything.
@@paulbeatham6530 my dawg... Appreciate that.
Saved me over 100$ today gas and tools !
Just watched this video. The complete E-socket is available at O'Reilly for about $30.00 and has ( 4) 3/8 inch drive E11,E12,E14,E16. ( 4) 1/2 INCH E18,E20,E22 E24. Hope this is helpful. Brand is a Titan.
Thanks!
Wow.. found some well conditioned seats at the junkyard and I'm glad I looked at this video before I went to take them out. Just leaving Harbor Freight... Thanks bud for sharing.
Thanks for the help. Saved me a lot of time trying to figure it out for my self.
Needed the sizes of e sockets and that’s what I got from your vid. Thank you sir! Nice tip with the breaker bar, my dumbass probably would’ve busted one of my ratchets getting that thing off.
thank you for doing this video. I am rebuilding the interior of my 2004 - I did not know how to take the wiring harness apart You did it in a snap!
Got a set of impact female E-torx on Amazon for 15 bucks. Made it a simple job to patch and bedline the inside cab of my beater. Thank you!
Thank you for the video. Always a special tool I guess. Never would have know without your video.
Thank you! Very helpful!
Great video - thanks for making it! I just had to replace the broken plastic shield on the seat slide on a 2005 GMC and came across your video. I don’t have any e-sockets that I know of and kept reading the comments and read screwdriver kelly’s comment on not needing esocket and Rex using 7/16 deep socket for rear bolts and 15mm socket which I had. Worked like a charm. I just removed the bolts on the left side of the drivers seat, removed the broken plastic shield and installed the new one and retighten bolts. All new again. Thank you Michael!!!
Thanks man. I have an 04 Tahoe. You made that so easy. 😆👍
Outstanding information, Thank you!!!!!
Dude, thank you! Sanity saver for sure. Really appreciate you taking the time to do these videos!
Love the shot of the "Herb" on the carpet that has fallen down between the seats :)
Excellent video!
Well done and THANK YOU!
Thanks for the video. Helped me a lot. My carpet was nasty so I took the seats out and pulled the carpet. I’m bed lining the inside.
My carpet is nasty too. How hard was bed lining the inside? Recommended?
@Byron Mongillo easy. Yes I recommend. Prep work is key, and use 4 or 5 cans of aerosol bedliner.
Very helpful, Thanks!
thank you. I was looking to remove the center console. to build a battery box for my system. thank you for your video.
For those who can't find the E20.
Use a 15mm 6 point deep socket for the front, be careful but it should grip enough
Thanks, was about to get at it.
Thanks for saving me time
a life and money saver right here
Thanks for video.
Any videos on how to replace the lean back part of the seat
Just replaced drivers side seat cushion on my 03 Silverado. You can most definitely use an 11mm deep socket for the front and 15mm for the rear bolts. I had no issues with the harbor freight set. Hope this helps anyone who is looking to do this!
Did you use regular sockets or did you buy the ones from harbor freight mentioned in the vid?

Thank u. Very good vid
love the video, thank you ❤
Very helpful thanks
I have an 03 silverado 1500. I used 14mm on the front bolts and 7/16 on the back bolts. Seemed to work very well.
Thank U Boss u did the job for me and made me look like a badass lol hell yea right on
Is there a way to either extend the seat track or mount it further to the rear so there is more driver leg room?
Do you know if 2002 Chevy Tahoe bench seats will fit an 03 Chevy Tahoe back bench.. Are they the same bracket set up
Thankyou so much, this video saved my sanity boss lol... Seriously though keep'em com'in.
in case anyone else is looking for this info, the front nuts fit a 15mm socket and the rear bolts fit a 7/16" socket perfectly. few if any videos tell you what regular sockets fit and most say just go buy an e-torx bit set for a job you will only do once in your lifetime if you are lucky
good video, this helped me a lot, i have a 2004 chevrolet tahoe ls 2wd, thanks!
Hey man is it possible that you can show the wiring for the top part, and heater for the power seats? Thanks in advance
Thanks man
Torx. The e simply means external
Are the seats in the trucks listed interchangable? I want to replace the seats in my '06 ext cab Silverado
Do you have instructions for installing the rear seats for 2013 GMC sierra?
i should have gone to harbor freight! i went somewhere else and paid more. a size 15 will work on that e21. did it today, man there was a lot of junk in there!
Bro, I had some large fries from 2016
I have to find a way how to remove the rear seat on a2002 extended cab. I have the front bracket nuts off but the back rest is like it is welded in place.
there are 2 bolt at each "leg" that secure it to the floor. Once those are off lift up at the base of the seat back to release the slide clips that secure it to the cab wall. That's it!
Would they fit on a 04 silverado 2500hd??
Thank you for the sizes. But my bolts are in the tracks instead of off to the sides.
I didn't want to buy anything, you don't have to buy e-sockets. the back socket is 12MM deep well and the front is 15MM deep well socket - and they will come right out. worked perfectly
Hell yeah thank you!
On Those exe sockets I use the 15mm on the back bolts and 12mm on the 2 front lock nuts on the seat. On my 2000 tahoe. I changed the seats from a n 04 model.
Yo bro did you use the 6pt or 12pt sockets when you took your seats out?
@@insertnamehere8220 I think the 12.its been about 3 months I'm not quite sure.
Thanks
I have 2000 Silverado power seats with bad motor. changed the breaker, changed the control modualon the side of the seat. Trying to get the seat out to check the wires/replace motor. Everything I see says to move the seat forward to get to the rear bolts. How do you move the seat with no motor. Is there a trick? I can get a 15 mm ratchet/wrench on the top, but have no room to hold the bottom, which is turning.
Alot of weed between the seat I see hahaha, thanks for the video brother !
Removing my middle seat for sound thanks
You don’t need a e socket.
I n a pinch a regular 12 point millimeter and or sae socket works well. It fits very tightly with no chance of stripping the head
That's what I was thinking also
Does anybody know if the back of the seat will remove from the bottom of the seat. I took 2 bolts Out and the left side does not come loose.
The plug is not an airbag sensor it’s for your seatbelt
What about the seat belts that are connected to the top of the side of the cab?
do i need to disconnect my battery before doing this?
You can actually find the E20 socket in stock at Napa auto parts if there’s one near you…
Hey Folks! I want to swap my buckets and console for a bench in my 99 GMC Suburban. Are the years 99 thru 06 interchangeable? Same mounting and bolt pattern? Is a front bench from a truck the same as a suburban? Thank you ahead of time! Great video!
Did you get around doing this swap? I'd like to know how it went 👍
How much for the seat ? I have an '03 Chevy Silverado I need one for the driver side thanks in advance
I do not want to order the wrong socket from Amazon. Is there anyway you can reply to my comment with a link to the Female e 20? Thank you.
Hi I have a 1999 silverado with power bucket seat drivers side and center console that the back has broken on. I want to go to a non power bucket seat can I do this without refabricating the mounts?
yes the manual and power seats bolt into the same locations for 99-06 silverado.
Really because the bolt holes don't line up at all just tried it
Does this silverado body style have the baby car seat hinges i cant find them
The rear seats should have the LATCH system after about 2000-2001 and definitely by 2003. Check your owner's manual for their location.
Thought the last time I did this I had to disable the airbag under the dash. It’s a red plug. ???
I rounded the second one off... yeah me!
Dan Vaught how did you get it off? I’m having the same problem
Can anyone please tell me where to locate the left rear bolt on driver seat? I can’t find it
Didn't need the breakover bar. I used penatrating oil... all else is spot on
Do you have to disconnect the battery so the airbags don't go off?
they won't go off but if you want to play it overly safe you can disconnect the negative.
That wasn't an air bag plug. Air bag plugs are always yellow.
You might want to tell your subscribers that the socket they need to do this job is a reverse Torx Socket set or External Torx.
My seats are power and the passengers side will not slide forward or backward to get to the front or back bolts. Do you have any suggestions?
First rule out if its the switch on the side or if the motor is truly out. If the switch is out you can "hot wire" a couple wire leads. easiest way is to find a wrecked truck and cut the plug from under it's seat and then use a jumper box to get power to that plug end and plug it into the plug under your seat to get power to the seat motor. it should then start moving.
TheHoodScoop good idea I will try that thanks man
Marshall, I did a follow up video for you to show you how to do this.............. th-cam.com/video/I_-i7fdV5dU/w-d-xo.html
Will this work on my 2001 Silverado 2wd short bed I have manual seats no rear seats cloth seats also will seats from a 05 trail blazer work in my truck , or the seats you just removed is similar to mine but without lumbar
You'll have to look at the trailblazer seat tracks but I'm 90% sure the answer it no as the mounting brackets will not be the same due to the floor designs on both. You can swap any 99-06 GM full size truck/SUV though
love how the dashboard and everything is black
How about removing the seat belt from it??? Kinda missing
I wish I would have read all the comments before I drove all the way to town to get an e14 socket because it does not fit the rear bolts. Once I read the comments somebody said it's an e16. So here I go back to town. LOL
Regular sockets work as well, just took mine out and cleaned them OMG talk about being dirty. Used chemical guys products,all video's I've watched make that cleaning look easy. I think it was a bitch. Also used drill brush and accessory tool from carpet cleaner to do the seats and carpet. Turned out good. Also mounted seats on small pallette which was on an old office chair with back removed. Made cleaning so much easier on the seats,same seats as this young man's seats in the video.
What do we do if they have no power to move them back and forth
Guaranteed you will find some large fries under there, yes that many lmao
We are trying to remove the seats and it is VERY hard to remove the bolts.. We sprayed with wd40 and it is near impossible. Any suggestions
Hi, these can rust pretty bad. You'll need to get a penetrating spray like PB Blaster as WD 40 is a lubricant and won't work. Also make sure you are using a large breaker bar 2ft+ for leverage to break them loose like I used in the video. Hope this helps!
PB Blaster put a breaker bar on it and smack the breaker bar with a hammer then work back and forth adding pb blaster it'll come out
P.b. blaster.. Autozone or bimart..penetrating oil works its way into the hidden threads.
Wd40 wont do that..it is too thick and leaves sticky behind.
Never use it on locks!
Where can I find replacement seats? It's really difficult to find seats with integrated seat-belts.
I'd try your local craigslist or eBay. Junk yards are going to be hit or miss. Around me, front buckets usually sell for $50-100 each and a complete front bench like in this video goes for around $200. These seats were used in all 99-06 GM full size trucks and SUVs. Hope this helps.
Thank you.
Ingrid Sarrichio a1 wrecking in fresno ca. Maybe they can ship.
What size E socket for back seat removal?
All of the rear seats use regular sockets. If I remember right it's an 18mm.
The rear Socket is a E16 not a E14 as the video states and the front is an E 20
Front bolts a 15mm socket fits them
Can I put 2002-2005 leather seats in a 1999 tahoe?
I’ve seen it done. Give it a google search, I’m sure someone on gmfullsize has done it or can answer your question. I think they’re interchangeable
I just change the leather from an 05 tahoe to my 2000 tahoe. But the wire elements are way different. So I end up changing just the leather on them. That's the only way they will fit. Unless they are not electrical seats they will fit just right.
You can just use a regular socket and take them right off . 11 and 15 mm
Are you sure? And won't they strip?
Yeah. It doesn’t slip any
Thanks a lot...
Why are you parting out that truck looks in good condition man
frames probably done for
The rear socket is a E 16 not a 14 . And the front socket is a E20 as mentioned in the video
So ill basically need e 14 and also e 18?
E14 and E20
Medrano_ 59 or u can do the fronts with a regular 16
What about the back bench??
4 18mm bolts at each leg then just lift up to remove it from the cab wall.
Just to let everyone know oreilly automotive carries them or can order
How do u fold the backrest of the back seat
on an extended cab you pull the two black pulls tabs, flip the seat bottom up. Ext cab seat back doesn't fold forward, only crew cab and suburban/tahoe.
TheHoodScoop I folded the seats up but i want to fold the backrest down
Im guessing u dont know how either?
ext cab seat backs on a 88-06 chevy full size don't fold down, the seat bottom is the only piece the moves and it only folds up. The seat back is physically clipped to the rear cab wall.
TheHoodScoop yea just saw that i need to figure a way to unclip them so i can mount my amplifiers
My seat is all the way pulled toward,can't get to bolts
Thank you for the great info, I have a 2004 Tahoe LT (with power driver seat, manual passenger seat, no airbags in seats). You’ve made it much easier for me to remove them.
Getting ready to power wash my carpets this spring! God bless
E 14 & E20
One of my bolts fucked idk what to do now 😂🤦🏽♂️
I just did it on my 99 Silverado with my trusty Craftsman little ole 3/8 drive ratchet and I think it was 11mm on front nuts and 15mm on back bolts. Both sockets we're deep well and only 6 points lol! They broke right loose except one outer back bolts I had to get on it...but I was only using a little bitty ole ratchet because I had nothing to go with my half...that 3/8 handle is only what 6" long or so lol...I thought I was going to have to get me some pipe for leverage on that last one, and than I was thinking if I had to do that I may have stripped head on bolt....but than it broke free. Mine were in great shape. I noticed this before I even started! No rust anywhere and they all 4 looked factory new in those areas...that's when I said, I bet if I can get something on these I can breakem loose without getting something at store ;)
I have a 2000 chevy silverado and rear bolts are e16 So I appreciate the videos. But I appreciate the right information.
I just use regular sockets. No stupid e tools needed.
I have a 2002 silverado 1500 LS and you can get away with using 12mm and 15mm sockets
E 14 and e 20
Awesome! Thank you for sharing especially about the right tools and correct size. I am trying to resolve my water in-flowing into my cab problem. I already removed the third brake light and did my best to remove and remake a gasket; however, I also need to replace the pressure vents. If interested, please visit my channel - UC6F19-bd_3GGCrEgfV6hqng - and look at the playlist titled My GMC Sierra Humidity or Water Leak offer guidance. Thank you very much
I have a Craftsman Socket Wrench set which has both standard (SAE) and metric sizes. I was wondering isn't the E20 a reference to size 20 mm socket? My set has a E18 and it is 18 mm- I have to double and triple check my observation: I tested the E18 on the anchor-bolts holding my back seat and I think this size may be the correct size for the backseat anchor bolts.
if ypur in a pinch a 5/8 will work on the front
and 5/32 for rear
+Rick Bean correction 7/16 for rear
Rick Bean hey dude, how do you take off the rear seat plastic cover on the right hand side to use a 7/16 socket , get back to me whenever you can, thanks
+Robert Echols it should pop right off
Robert Echols I saw in another video that there’s a small pin you have to pry out, then it just pops off
Good video. But you can use regular sockets. A 7/16 for the bolts and a deep 15 for the nuts.
Wow thanks! worked perfect and you saved me $$ and time. ur the best!!
E = 'female' torx
Those rear ones are impossible!
Glad to see you're flossing!
Naturally....special tool for every god damn thing in this truck....engine works great.... interior is for shit....wtf Chevy!!
