Guys,

Poking around the rear seat for the emergency motor release for the VERT and decided to remove the whole rear seat, found two problems:

1) RIGHT seat belt receptor housing came off, apparently it was loose and it came out in two pieces. I unbolted and epoxy them together. - Done

2) Some sort of sound deadening mat, which I think it was made of rubber, all brokem in pieces underneath the seat. What is this mat used for? I think it serves as moisture protector for the electrical component underneath the seat, as well as sound deadner. Is this worth changing out?

Thanks,
DD99

Never mind, I found my own answer. It's sound deadening mat, according to RealOEM.
