I've had my rear window leak twice (fixed twice) and luckily no damage to any of the electrical behind the seats.
I was thinking to pull the seats and drape a sheet of plastic over the electronics and tape the crap out of the top with Tuck Tape to at least give me some protection if it happens again.

But those bolts that secure the seats to the floor, anyone know the torque? And do they use locktite (I assume, but red or blue)?

Thanks
 
Rear seat bolts rear. 41 lbft

Rear seat bolts Front (six lobe external drive bolts - 31 lb ft

No Loctite mentioned but medium strength is never not a bad idea.

Blue locktite IIRC. I just drove them back in with an air ratchet and called it good.
