On my 2015 Corvette the seat adjustment panel came 'away' from the drivers seat. I saw two 'connecting' clips; one was broken. I glued it back onto the panel and re-attached the panel but it is not a SNUG fit at the front. Has there been a previous 'fix' placed on this forum? I did a search but found nothing. Does anyone know if there is something at the 'front' of the panel that I did not see to connect?

I attached as best I could but it is NOT SNUG at the front

There's a thread here somehere where someone drilled through the broken trim piece tab and zip-tied the trim piece to the seat frame.

See the black plastic hook w/ the red line? That normally hooks over top of the silver rod right under it. See if yours has popped off or if the end of the hook has broken. If it has broken I would drill about a 1/4 inch hole through the remaining part and fasten it to the rod w/ a wire tie. BTW the darker vertical rod is the shaft of my large screwdriver. I was using it to bend the silver rod outward some. That is the fix for the seat bolster pushing against your thigh until it hurts.

The "fix" is to talk with your closest Parts Dept and see if they can get you a new replacement. Try the best option (as far as finished product) first... before jury-rigging (no, not "jerry-rigging in this case). This has nearly always worked for me repeatedly. All the best.

I would reach out to your Chevy dealership and ask about ordering a replacement part. The issue is there is a lot of pressure on that attachment point that others have mentioned above. It sounds as if your glued on part has broken off. A replacement is your best bet. Here is a short video on when I changed the color of mine, and this took two times to get the correct part. The first painted side panel that I ordered arrived without that plastic hook. Good Luck

Replaced two on my 2016 Stingray. First under Chevy warranty. The second under extended warranty. The panel itself is not expensive, they transfer the controls from broken panel to the new one.
