2012-2017 Toyota Corolla Rear Seat Hinge Replacement (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017)

简介

If the seat hinges on your 2014 Toyota Corolla become loose or unattached from the seat, it may be caused by a loose bolt or even a broken hinge.

This guide details how to properly remove the rear-outside seat hinges, but can also be applied to the removal of the rear-inside seat hinges, as the removal process is almost identical. Although this repair is made on a 2014 Toyota Corolla, it also applies to all 2012-2017 models of the Toyota Corolla as they are in the same generation.
