ok stupid question.
i just bought a 2000 eclipse gt recently.
it came pretty cheap ($6000)!!!
but the driver seat doesnt move back and forwards, which makes it very uncomfortable (its stuck all the way forward).
does anyone know any way to fix this?
do you think a machanic knows how to fix it?

Is it electric or manual? The seat that is.

If its a manual seat there are only the lever and track. Its really basic. Like they said unbolt it and take it out. Should be 4 bolts and the seat pops out.

thanks guys.
i took the seat out today.
and there is this little ball stuck in the track that cant get out.
so i kinda just hammered the track until it moved enough.
after about 2 hours of trail and error,
the seat still doesnt move like its suppose to,
but its in good position now.
