I am replacing all the wood in my seats for my 82 2001 before an apholstry shop visit.What are the screws & bolts called that holds the wood to the seat frames? They look like little saw blade bolts that bite into the wood when you screw them together.Mine had to be broke off to remove.Thanks ! Dan

dans, the "nuts" that you are talking about are called TEE NUTS ,you can get them at any large hardware store, and they come in different sizes,you will need 1/4 x2 in.

I found some at my local Ace hardware store. I think they had 1/4,5/16,3/8 At different depths. Its been a couple years . I also found some steel ones at Menards . I dont think they had stainless.

The stainless T nuts are also available at McMaster-Carr supply at about $.06 each in a package of 50 for the 1/4-20 size. Those of you who don't have their catalog can shop on line at mcmaster.com
