Reply With QuoteI had a similar issue with one of my seats. I removed the original hook from the seat, got a screw hook at home depot, re-aligned it perfectly and plastic welded it back in. Fits and works like a charm.
Yes it's all the way down and forward, it just won't latch.don't you push it hard in a downward forward angle...?
Actually, yes I do have subframe spacers installed and I've tried it without them as well with the same results.do you have sub frame spacers installed? tail looks high in the pic...

I removed the two screws that attach the battery tray to the tail. Then you will have to smack the tray upwards while holding the tail cowl down. It should latch with no problems.
Screws removed
Cowl installed and latched
I guess I could take it off your hands if you cant get it to work... :)
Thanks for the tips everyone. I was able to put a couple of shims under the battery tray where the screws attach to the fender eliminator. I had to readjust the angle on the latch and that fixed the problem. I may need to put smaller shims though when I get around to it. I now have a nice gap between the cowl and the subframe.
