Good morning,

I am attempting to take out my back rest cushions up on the bow of my 2015 AR210 to tighten the rail handles on the bow. There are 3 screws hidden on the bottom of the cushion which I took out. The top is still hung up. Is there something I'm missing? Or just give it a good pull I didn't want to rush and break something

I am new to the forum and tried to look at other threads. Didn't find anything, unless I'm not navigating the site properly

Thanks

IMG_7274.JPG So I got the cushion out thanks to Murf'n'surf. Figured there would be an access hole behind the cushion to tighten the bow rails. Which are both loose on the port and stbd side

@DeeAmericanDream

Can you post up what size socket you use to tighten them down please? I have the same issue on my '15 210. I was trying to reach up from under the seat. It was not easy. So also post up how well it worked using the speaker hole. Thanks

hmm , weird on my 2015 that I bought new there were wingnuts. I just reached through the storage compartment to the other side of the back rest and undid the wing nuts. push the cushion towards the sky and voila.

I have 4 screws left on my 2015 AR210 and I'm 6-4" 210 lbs, so I can't fit in that compartment to get the last screws out :( I need to hire a little guy to get in there. I like the idea of replacing the hex nuts with wing nuts if I ever have to do this again. The very back cushions had bolts in the engine compartment that were easy to access, but then I had to go through the speaker holes for a few more and I can't believe the last one is through another compartment going even further aft that seems impossible to access. Very frustrating.
