Quick tip, sometimes the bench seat its very difficult to get unlatched at the bottom , what I found that works really well is to use the front power seat and a 2×4 lay the 2x4 so that they edge is running long ways at the base of the bench right at the latch then prop the other end of the 2x4 against the back bottom of the front seat then use the back botton on them front seat to make the front seat travel backward thus pushing the latch of the bench until it unlatches, go slow i mean real slow nothing worst than to have the 2x4 pop and poke a hole in your seat. Slow and easy will get it done.
I totally agree with you. That bottom cushion isn't easy to unlatch at all. I don't have a problem with taking the time and go slow. Less errors that way. I'm gonna have to give that 2x4 method a try. Thank you for sharing this with me.
@@lawjo1978 I have been unfortunate enough to contract covid twice now within a 87 day window 1st time was October 2nd time January the 1st time damn near killed me, at any rate my lungs appear to be shot I can't even walk across the yard without becoming winded and I've never smoked so the last thing I want to do let's try and struggle unlatching the bench seat in my Cadillac so I had to think smart and holding an index finger to a toggle for the seat seem to be as good as I could do.
@@Tay58382 COVID twice in an 87 day window! Geez... that is rough. Praying for better outcome and recovery. I don't blame you for working smart as opposed to working hard.
Awesome info man! I just saw your page and I have I just my first cadillac uts a 96 cadillac deville northstar engine this video is very helpful. Great work hopefully u work on more cadillacs like this 1! 👏👏👏👏
i just got me a 94 Deville AND the sterio doesn't work w2hoever had a cd changer that they removed anyhow I cant get it to work and is there a way to check the amp I know it's getting power and just where are all 11 speaker located I must really sound dumb what can I say thank you DD LaFleur south callie
@Dorene.... The 11 speaker locations are as follow.... There is 1 4x6 in the middle of the dash, 2 6x9's on the rear shelf, 4 5x 2.5 1 in each door, and there are 4 tweeters 1 in each door
You do know you can't get to the fuel pump from under the seat unless either someone like Mr Jones or myself have already made an access opening under the seat, if not you'll have to drop the tank son.
Mr. Jones, how are you? I'm in dire need of knowing how to move electrical seats (94 Cadillac Deville Concours) via battery in a junkyard? Please & thank you
I'm doing pretty good thanks for asking. The best way to move the seats from a junkyard vehicle that has power seats and the battery is most likely been removed is to take a jumper box with you if you have access to one. That is what I usually take with me and it does work. Just enough to move the seats. Not much else. I hope this helps...
Hey Tortezzy..... It won't give you full access to the trunk since the seat back rest on a steel brace. It just make installation way easier should you want to install new speakers in the factory locations or doing new speaker wire....
Hey Michael, Sorry for the late response to you. If you have the Bose system or active audio system. You will have 11 speakers, the standard systems will have either 4 or 6 speakers
Are you stay Cadillac with the replacement seat or it doesn't matter? If it doesn't matter. You can do a Buick Park Avenue, Buick Lesabre, Oldsmobile 98/88. Or if you keeping it Cadillac. You can go from 89-93 model years
Hello Susan, the seat on these cars are locked in with hooks that are built in the floor where the seats locks in. You will do better to do one side at a time on this car
Actually I could had but it was so tight to the point where it was much better removing the seat as such. And also I was able to take advantage of cleaning the areas where the seats mount at. Found almost $2.00 worth of change back there 😂
Hey Gender Happy, on the 2002 Deville's the bottom of the back seat comes off way easier than the model I have. Because, the battery is actually mounted there, about 2 fuse panels, and the module that you're talking about
@@lawjo1978 It's the back seat REST that I want to remove. The back seat ass part just lifts right up. But the rear integration module is behing the seat rest. I need the numbers to order the new RIM. I appreciate ANY help you can give me. Thank you! Fred
@GENDER HAPPY ..... Okay the back part of the seat is actually bolted in. Remove the seat belt mounting bolts at the bottom. Then there are 4 retaining clips on the top that get released by using a flat bladed screwdriver between the seatback and the upper shelf. Push down to release them.
@@lawjo1978 Thanks Mr. LJ! I am a snowbird in Fl for the winter. I think I'll wait till next November to get at that. i don't want to rip or damage any of the leather. The car is really clean with only 62,000 miles on that Northstar. I'm glad the A/C blows cold and windows all work. Auto door locks, fuel door, trunk and left rear lights are all defective because of that module. I had a good machanic here but he stiffed me out of some cash. What a jerk. Portarican guy. Don't ever lend money to anyone. It was only $30 bucks. Thankfully. God does not like thieves.
@GENDER HAPPY ..... I totally despise a damn thief. That sucks that he would do that to you. Sound you have a real cream puff Cadillac. That one module will cause all kinds havoc on your car
I have a 1994 Sedan DeVille I'm removing the seats in the wrecking yard thanks for the information I needed that
@ David... Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad the video was able to help out.
Thanks Law, I was wondering if I could remove the top seat myself.Much appreciated video.
Good Morning Andre.. Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad that the video was able to help you out.
Thanks for this. Just bought a 1998 Deville and need to get to the rear relays.
Not a problem. I'm glad that this video will help you out.

Questions so removing the back seat gives you full access to the trunk correct? I don't need access to the back of the seat from the trunk?

Been wanting to know how to do that for mime in case I gotta do the fuel pump, thanks brother
No problem at all

Ok. Which jumper box do you use specifically, considering the fact we both have the same year & make👍?
@@nVSGES Good Morning, the general battery jumper boxes that you would find at an auto parts store.

@@lawjo1978 the reason I'm asking is because I locked my keys in the trunk. So if removing the back seat gives me partial access to unlock the trunk.
@@tortezzyfresh3912 That opening isn't that wide to access what you're looking to do on your car
I'm working on my 94 deville and boy oh boy
What are you doing to it?
Do u know how many speakers total in the car I looked on the web some say 4 some say 6
Hey Michael,
Sorry for the late response to you. If you have the Bose system or active audio system. You will have 11 speakers, the standard systems will have either 4 or 6 speakers
What seats can I use to replace my 1990 Deville driver seat?
Are you stay Cadillac with the replacement seat or it doesn't matter? If it doesn't matter. You can do a Buick Park Avenue, Buick Lesabre, Oldsmobile 98/88. Or if you keeping it Cadillac. You can go from 89-93 model years
So, there are speakers in the rear doors?
Yes they are. My Deville has 11 speakers
Ok, thank you. I have a ‘94 4.9 as well and I thought there were only two on the front doors and two in the rear on the back panel.
@TexasBoi210 .... On our cars they offered 4, 6, and 11 speakers systems
@@lawjo1978 Ok, thank you for the information. Great to know.
What kit u use for aftermarket stereo with running speaker wires
What's going on Jason, I had to a tuner bypass harness to run the aftermarket stereo and speakers
How do you put the back seat back in sir
Hello Susan, the seat on these cars are locked in with hooks that are built in the floor where the seats locks in. You will do better to do one side at a time on this car
Is a 93 deville the same way?
The 93 model will come off the same way as I was recently doing some work on a 91 Deville which is under your bodystyle as well....
What bout 83
Thank you
I was hoping there was a way to drop the seat. To put in like a shelf or TV into the vehicle
Are you talking about totally eliminating the back seat?
Nice ride
Thank you my man. Appreciate it
What is your wheel setup?
What's going on J.D. I used the factory 17 inch wheels from the 03-05 Cadillac Deville DTS. Code is N94 chrome
Does it bolt on or does it need spacers? Are they on the oem tire size?
@@j.d.petitt9703 They bolt right on. The OEM tire size is 235/55/17
Petty sure you could get to them through the trunk simply remove the trunk lining
Actually I could had but it was so tight to the point where it was much better removing the seat as such. And also I was able to take advantage of cleaning the areas where the seats mount at. Found almost $2.00 worth of change back there 😂
