I think that's over on s-10 forum. He used two wrenches welded together to get the right angle to fit pat the seat correct? One of the German members on here did the conversion as well but used flat stock. Someone help me out I'm on my phone and searching its a huge pain.

OK heres the first one. The entire 50 pages is a good read with some awesome ideas and even nicer fab work but the part you are looking for is on page 9. The link should take you straight to it!
https://blazerforum.com/forum/builds...d-45501/page9/

And sorry I was wrong about s10 forum it was Zr2usa I was thinking but heres the link.
How to: Manual 233 - Zr2USA.com

Hope these help you out some and make sure if you do it post up some pics and a few tips and such for the rest of us!!

Here's another guy on ZR2USA that did the mod, I haven't read that other thread but maybe there's more useful infortmation in this one too. He starts it on page 5.

ZR2NC's Build Thread (Manual 233 is done! but i cheated) - Zr2USA.com

Its cool but what is really the point off all that does it remove the need to push the button or do you still need to is it another way to do that home made posi loc like rex did?
