    Please help.
    Can't seem to remove this lumbar knob. Does it just pop off or is there a screw somewhere? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.tacomaseat.jpg

    Never done it on the Tacoma but some have a c clip or e clip behind that holds them on.

    i have not ever had to remove mine, so this will be informative
    looks like you can use some fresh scuff plate screws! i just got some new ones and they are sharp :cool: compare to what the weathered ones looked like

    I used to have a 1st gen 4runner with the fully adjustable SR5 seats that had the same knob. It's just a C clip that holds it on right behind it. I use needle nose pliers to get it off.
