Consumer Description

THE DRIVERS-SIDE SEATBACK PANEL CONSTANTLY FALLS OFF. THERE ARE TWO HOOKS AT THE TOP AND TWO FENDER-PLUG STYLE CLIPS AT THE BOTTOM THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO SNAP THE PANEL INTO PLACE, BUT THESE PLUGS CONTINUALLY POP OUT OF THE PYLONS ON THE PANEL ITSELF AND THE PANEL IS NO LONGER SECURED TO THE SEAT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PASSENGERS THAT FOUND THE PANEL DROPPING ONTO THEIR LAPS OR TOES WHILE DRIVING. I FINALLY GAVE UP ON THE PLUGS ENTIRELY AND OPTED FOR HEAVY-GAUGE WIRE-TIES THAT HAVE SECURED THE PANEL TO THE BACK OF THE SEAT ONCE AND FOR ALL.
