    Thumbs up BIG thanks to FRANKIE, Trim rattle??

    For ages now the back seat has rattled as squeaked a goodin , and has been driving me MAD!

    So decided to dig up so info off the Net, and came across a Old post of frankies, He suggested greasing the Lock Catches and striker plates in the ends of the rear seat.

    Well it ONLY B**** works lol ,

    Thanks frankie my 850 R is now squeak free

    Great news merc im sure the problem lies with wear on the shaft the seat catches to which then leaves room for movement only other cure but much more hastle would be to move the bracket back a little
