Hi everybody thanks for adding me I hope I'm in the right section here if not please let me know as I am extremely new to all of this. I am a first-time Harley owner I have a 2004 Fatboy and I'm having a little problem I'm trying to replace the seat screw on the back on top of the fender I don't know if these are pressed in or how they're attached but there's a screw with the spring and then it goes through a holder which is pressed into the seat I think and I have a new screw for it but I need to get the old one out any help is greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance Jeno

The seat nut that goes thhttp://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=harley+quick+detach+seat+pin&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.Xharley+seat+mount+bolt.TRS0&_nkw=harley+seat+mount+bolt&_sacat=0ru the fender is held by a "C" clip. I'm confused by your "screw,spring,holder pressed into seat description. I suspect you have an aftermarket seat mount kit. Is it like any in the attached link?

It's been MY experience that the seats are held down on the back fender by a threaded Carriage Bolt, nothing more.
That was true of my Fat Boy (2009); it's true of my Road Glide Ultra (2013) and it was true of two Honda Shadows I had, before that!
If you're seeing springs, I would think maybe that's an aftermarket set up.
