A little help needed!!

Alright guy's I did the unthinkable with my truck (07TRD DCLB), I bought some weed killer from Home Depot placing it in the back seat folded down, on the way home I noticed that the weed killer spilled all over my back seats!! I tried cleaning my seats myself, took it to a detailer to have the interior cleaned but I still have a faint, to moderate smell of the weed killer, can the back seats fabric be removed?? I have the sport seats......... Any suggestions on getting rid of the smell?..............by the way I also tried febreeze odor removal with no luck.

You probably need to go to a auto upholsterer and have the foam in the seats re-done. The weed killer probably got under the fabric and the foam soaked up the stuff and the detailer wasn't able to get deep down into the foam.

The seats are easy to remove. The bolts and brackets should be obvious. Take them to a professional upholstry cleaner. They should have a hot water extractor that can suck out the remaining weed killer.

Next time put liquids in the bed of the truck. A cardboard box works good for keeping things from rolling around.
