Hi. I know this is not a new issue on the forum, but when vacuuming my truck I noticed the ‘leather’ seat cover is unclasped next to the center console. I am unable to figure out ‘where to’ and ‘how to’ reattach it. I couldn’t find another thread that talked about that. Does anyone have pics of what it is supposed to look like? Or please point me to the thread that discusses it. Thanks.

Very timely, I too was vacuuming today and also noticed the "white clip" dangling down on the cloth powered XLT seats. I adjusted/raised the back bottom seat up, took the clip, flipped it up 180 degrees placing the longer lip over to the inside of metal frame edge.

I figured it will keep coming loose just from repetitive sitting on the seat.

What I did find odd was the 2 big and bulky wire harnesses sitting outside of the bottom of the center console on the passengers seat side. Based on the console plastic it looks intentional yet very sloppy and unfinished.

Same issue, I tried for a bit but could not get my hand/wrist in between the seat far enough to re-clip it. I have a service visit soon for ann outstanding CSP and hoping they can take a look.

I probably had a much easier time because the fabric has some give and can stretch.

If it's the same clip that's shaped like an upside down "J", I would suggest if you have access to long reach needle nose pliers, to use those. It should even be easier with a second person to push on the seat bottom on that sides edge.
