[@williamboquist4090]

Making that latch operate for the first time so that I could get at it was a royal pain. Thank God for videos like this one to point the way.

[@jimbobxcityguy5338]

Made my own. Drilled the tab and installed a key ring with a lanyard.

[@LawF250]

I just put a zip tie on it and works perfect.

[@mattclary2069]

A word of caution, I pulled the seat back down to check out whether I had much room back there (I didn't) and could not get the seat back to lock back into position. The pin that the seat latches onto slides up and down. It was out of position and needed to (after trial and error) be moved down a bit. Great video as always!!!

[@wesleymarkham3343]

All these videos are gonna make me buy an F250.

[@moostang09]

Do It, Do It, Do It!!! 😂

[@brent2455]

Fuck man I bought one last night... 2019 fx4 xlt.

[@zachmash3450]

ford sucks

[@moostang09]

Thanks for watching y’all!! Be sure to hit that subscribe button and let’s get to 10,000 subs. 👊🏼

[@Steven-jq8jj]

moostang09 just installed mine. Soo much easier and now my shit doesnt slide around in the back

[@Merritt3246]

Added this to my 2020, even though I have the amp and sub back there. Ford needs to add this to there seats!

[@tjshine7444]

This was my first Add-On for my new F250!

[@michaelbutler8999]

Thanks🙏

[@40beretta1]

I love Fordz truck but, this is why I have a Ram Mega Cab 2500....They thought this out before hand.... seat flips up, then you fold our the platforms. enough room for a 13 y/o and a German Shepard

[@DixieNormous1]

Thanks for the help I'm a subscriber now! Had my new Powerstroke a few months and couldn't figure out how to get the back seat folded forward this is the first thing that Googled up

[@soloban81]

Space behind that seat is perfect for a set of jumper cables in one of those round jumper cable bags.

[@slanis6718]

Dude, THANK YOU. After 1/2 hour of struggling and searching to find the release on my truck, my frustrated girlfriend and I shouted “To the internet!” And found your video in short order. You’re a savior. And we ordered the updated version of the built-right 5 seconds later via your link.

[@CH-jq8kq]

Looks good, but i just drilled a small hole through the metal pin on the factory latch, put some copper wire through the whole, and got diy pull string

[@curtisjune3808]

If you fold the bottom seat up halfway to 3/4 it will pull the top out 2 to 3" so you could see down in there where the button is

[@jdscoco]

I had to modify mine to make it fit. Had to drill a hole to fit the metal locking insert from the OEM piece. Works fine.

[@mrdddeeezzzweldor5039]

Nice descriptive video - ordered one for my '23 XLT!

[@robertoescobar007]

Thank you.

[@gilbertmendez1991]

Mine came it today and I just finished installing it. It’s perfect.

[@jaypo7847]

This video just helped me. I’m getting great ideas from your truck. We like the same look.

[@moostang09]

That is awesome Jay! Happy to help.

[@danielleon4295]

Thanks for the info !!! couldn't figure it out ....

[@artrecio6432]

Just added this to my truck super handy!! Thanks Moostang09!!!

[@ricardomoreira2689]

I did not get a notification for this vid but that's awesome I need to see if my rear seats fold down, 19 f250 stx

[@mtrsgt5]

Awesome upgrade. I’m getting one for my 2020. Thanks for this.

[@wyliecoyote5.082]

I purchased this for my truck and it makes life so much easier to get behind the seat to my amp!

[@williamdebarge4210]

Thanks for the demo. I just ordered one....

[@moostang09]

Awesome William! Thanks for checking out the video sir.

[@Steven-jq8jj]

Good stuff. Ive been trying to fold my down.. ordered one!

[@JasSinghGrewal]

Great thanks! More storage in my beast

[@ottopotgieter8109]

I have a 2019 F350, behind the small seat is the jack and I can't get in there... Does it have the same mechanism behind the small seat?

[@itswift]

I've had a 2019 for few months now and couldn't figure out how to drop the driver side passenger seat. Not only did I learn by watching this video, but the previous owner had already installed this gadget (the strap fell behind the seat)!

[@bryansmith5279]

Amazing truck bro.....always enjoy the way you explain your mods, and your positive energy...Merry Christmas, and a happy/ healthy ‘19.

[@toolguy1964]

I just ordered one for my '17 Beast from Sean's Amazon link. They are out of stock right now.. In.stock April 17, delivery around May 8. OUCH Amazon!

[@droopdude11]

I would only install if u don’t have the sub behind there. I got one for my lariat and behind the seat is zero space.

[@theneverman]

Ha! Came here to say the same thing my fellow Lariat friend. :)

[@donaldlee1525]

If I order from Amazon what is that called that you used for that strap?

[@NewYorkF150stx]

Thank you for sharing!

[@douglashaussler4238]

My 2017 F350 lariat has a factory Subwoofer back there. No room to put anything else

[@michaelb41]

my 2018 already has a strap from the factory. it is short, but i reached in and pulled it. I need a longer strap for easy access.

[@parametalhead]

I have a an 18 and whoever engineered that clearly never planned on using it. I like that product, but I’m going with drilling a hole in the pin and putting in a cord. I’m cheap. Lol.

[@richardhuffman58]

I thought about just tying a piece of paracord to the latch and tie the other end on the head rest support rod. It would be hidden

[@LaughingBearGames]

Should the mechanism auto latch back after? Mine isn’t latching again.

[@Yooper05]

Did you ever figure this out? Just installed and have the same problem. 😢

[@LaughingBearGames]

@@Yooper05 Yea I had to readjust the position of the latch to make sure it was actually able to drop back over the pin again. I really haven't used it in all honesty and just got an underseat storage insert instead.

[@Yooper05]

I got it. Thank you!

[@parkermj]

Thanks for the video mr moostang. I would have ordered with your amazon link but they were sold out (nice work😅). I ended up ordering another brand for $15 and it works great. Still had to refer back to your video for install tips tho... 🤘🏽

[@biggiesmalls3083]

Can you fold down the other side?

[@acmanwwjd1]

Where can I get this device?

[@miketonon7946]

Not sure why Ford didn’t just include this.

[@MyHMMWVaddiction]

Merry Christmas Moose

[@moostang09]

Thanks Thomas, Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@Bigfish11]

I bought the same release. Mine does not release well. I need to play with it some more.

[@moostang09]

I think you can adjust the built right bracket over some and then tighten the screws down so the billet aluminum piece has some wiggle room and can release the latch. I hope that made sense.

[@MyHMMWVaddiction]

Did you remove the rifle mount?

[@donaldlee1525]

Where can I order that?

[@mattb8920]

You need clazzio seat covers, i have them on my 2017 powerstroke they look like factory leather

[@iamfuckingyourwaifuandther2743]

Put some tape over the holes then you won't have to worry about the screws falling.

[@johnbiagiotti5611]

Just installed mine, thanks to you showing exactly where the latch release was. The builtrite video was not as helpful. Thanks

[@tapout369]

How do you bring down the second seat?

[@SCRaetz]

I can't find ANYTHING about how to fold the second seat. Ford put the goddamn jack wheel nut tire set behind that one I'm stuck on the side of the road trying to pull the fucking seat down so I can change my tire. 😡

[@tomfoolery5033]

S. Raetz there should be a little strap sticking out right there on the side of the seat. It looks just like the lower release strap but it’s on the side of the upright. At least that’s how my 19 is. 2 release straps on passenger and one on lower for driver side.

[@marshallswanberg527]

This cheap device is a good buy and works well.........however if you have a King Ranch, forget it, there is no room to put anything except for maybe a small ziploc bag w “something”-too many electronic components and subwoofer stuff already there

[@markstracke9541]

Not much room below the subwoofer, but I could fit a small hand gun or my wallet or something I wanted to really hide.

[@suburbanhobbyist2752]

I just don't get this mod. It seems like one of those things where guys are running out of stuff to do and just want to fiddle with their truck. There is hardly any space at all back there (and really no space if you happen to have the upgraded audio system) and even if you do keep something there it's not going to be something you will be using often so why not just take the extra 15 seconds and use the original latch.

[@EricHedden]

Can you take out the rectangular storage piece that is under the seat?

[@tomfoolery5033]

Great vids, bro but this is a poor mod with the B&O sound. The sub and amp are behind there taking up all the room. You did teach me how to release the seat for when I finally take that piece of shit B&O subwoofer out.👍🏻👍🏻

[@500sandwmag]

Do have any advice on a 2019

[@500sandwmag]

Finally, got it!🇺🇸

[@patrickhamilton300]

What did you do? Mine is a 2019 Lariat and can’t seem to get it. Thanks in advance

[@RichieColemanSr]

How is the latch holding up?

[@moostang09]

Flawless. I haven’t had a single issue out of it.

[@RichieColemanSr]

@@moostang09 Thanks for responding. Is it true that the seat isn't supposed to be opened that's why Ford didn't add a release?

[@moostang09]

I have no idea about that. Why isn’t it supposed to be opened? That seems ridiculous...

[@RichieColemanSr]

@@moostang09 I agree with you 1000%. Just something I heard. Just ordered mine 😊

[@bambamnj]

I heard for other cabs, crew cab etc, that you can lift the seat bottom and the top of the seat moves which gives you more room to reach behind the seat to get to the pin, this is not true of my truck which is a 2018 Ford F150 XL STX w Supercab (Extend Cab reverse opening half doors) - Here is how to find the release pin. On my truck the release mechanism is just to the right of the right head rest post (this is when you are facing the bed, so if you enter via the driver's side and your facing the headrest it's towards the door that you entered through). If you squeeze your hand down between the back seat and the back of the truck you should be able to feel the metal bracket that makes up the release mechanism. In my truck there was no way I was going to get the rest of my hand, let alone my arm down far enough to get to the pin. So, I took a 3/4 inch box wrench, mine was about 9 inches long. Using the round end of the box wrench, I carefully slid this down just to the right of the driver's side post of the head rest. Then I just kept pulling it up while at the same time pushing it toward the driver's side of the truck. The pin is there, you just have to keep using an up and down motion trying to catch the pin with the round part of the box wrench. It only took me about 3 tries. NOTE** make sure the bottom of the bench seat is in the DOWN position. Don't have the seat bottom locked in the up position. You should be kneeling on the seat bottom not on the truck floor. If the seat bottom is locked in the up position the locking mechanism doesn't want to work or will work a lot harder. Put the seat bottom down and kneel on the seat. I was shouting so loud when I heard it click because I was so happy I got it. PS - I found the dinky little handle that I guess comes with the truck. Mine was tucked behind the felt covering on the back of the seat, just under the locking mechanism. So, slide your finger into the bottom of the opening in the felt that's around the locking mechanism and feel around in there mine was just laying in there. One more additional note. This is true on my truck, not sure about other models. There is so little space behind the seat and around the locking mechanism. If the new strap is laying the wrong way, pointing towards the back of the truck or laying across the locking mechanism, the stupid mechanism will not lock in place. You should have to slam the seat back to get it to lock. It should lock with a gentle push. If your seat back locks harder with the strap on then without it, then something isn't right. There's no room back there for things to just be wherever they want to be. The strap has to be in the right place and not restricting the pin or forcing any more pressure on the locking mechanism. You may have play around with things a little to get it working the way it should work. I'm also thinking about using some velcro to make sure the strap stays where I want it to stay. Hope this helps some of you out there.

[@WillBelden]

Stupidest design EVER on the part of Ford. I've got a 2019 F-350 DRW, and I'll be DAMNED if the thing is designed as it clearly is for you. Got my hand behind the seat, but I swear it doesn't feel like that. I'm ready to stick a GOD-SIZED prybar somewhere.

[@richardhuffman58]

Where do I order one of these?
