Picking up a 2006 XB - Grey interior - but it's missing the 2 peg tops that release and lower the back seats. (They go on the top and screw down on the threads of the pegs) Should I go to a parts shops like Lordco and see if they can order them in or just go directly to Toyota? Do I need the part number to order them? ( I can't seem to find what they are called ) Also, is there anyone on the board that has a XB (or other scion with the same hardware?) they are parting and may have a set for me? Thanks so much!

i'm also looking for a XB rear window wiper blade (just the blade) But I'm guessing that may be easier to find.

 

Weird how those are missing?

Usually its floor mats, I don't understand how people lose those.


Just kill the rear wiper altogether.

 

yeah just go to the dealer ive broke 2 of them allready.i think i paid 6 or 7 bucks each,if you can find them cheaper lmk i broke another one hauling crap again and getting tired of paying so much for them.

 

Standard old-timey door-lock pulls fit on the rear seat releases. In fact, I have these: http://www.mooneyesusa.com/images/aa112mn.jpg

 

Cool!- I checked out mooney's site - Aren't they a little long? Does the rest of the seat release peg just unscrew then you replace the whole thing with this?

Thanks!

 

it just screws on.thanks for confirming it works ..

 

Yesterday when I replaced my windshield wipers I took one of the old ones, moto-tooled it to the right length, and stuck it in the rear wiper. I don't use the rear wiper much, and I can't see any problems arising. It was a friction fit.

 

I just replaced my blade with that from a Bosch Micro Edge Excel blade. In addition, I know from unfortunate experience that whatever cheapo Autozone brand of blade does not fit the rear wiper arm (there were a lot of choice words when I figured that out).

 

if you are worried about them being too long you can just cut them down some.
thats what I did to mine back in the day when I figured out that the door locks would work. And it adds a little custom touch to the car. Its the small things thats cool to me.
