Nice, glad to see the part is now in stock. I had to solder mine back together last year.

A great deal of manufactures use the plastic strip across the front of the interior fabrics and acts like a hook in the grove. I have had that strip pop out in the past. It can be a ***** to get it hooked properly in the grove

Incredible job, well done! I'm curious, since you had the seat out, did you notice if there was wiring in place for the massage feature? Like a plug and play? I don't know why the regular F150s have it, and Raptors dont?

I think it is likely because Raptor owners are supposed to get butt massages by running across bumpy dunes or rough terrain at 80+ MPH

The advantage of this, however, is the problem:
If you hit it faster, it’ll smooth out

Do you have the parts number from Ford?

I replaced mine without removing the seat. Easy job but like you mentioned those clips buried in the foam were a pain in the rear end

I didn't dive that deep into it, and didn't pull the back apart at all.

Aren't there hog rings to deal with?

Thank you, thank you for the detailed Post. Hoping I don't need that wonderful description, but mine being an '18 I fear I might so I've marked your post for myself to retrieve.

I can buy the hog ring pliers from you if you're looking to unload them... My Cobra replica was built in '84, and shortly after I acquired it in 2013 the driver's seat adjuster became undone and I had to remove the seat to repair it. The release lever was held on by aluminum rivets so I just replaced them with SS ones. In the process I noticed that the webbing is quite dry-rotted, so I need to replace the webbing and thus will be in need of a hog ring pliers.

From you moniker I can tell that you're doing exactly what I'm doing right now; you're doubled-over in gut-wrenching angst, unable to eat or concentrate, just waiting for the 7:40 kickoff versus those Dawgs. This is twisting agony. Go Blue!!!
