Much needed repair with a twist.
I have a 97 Jeep Wrangler. Its not your regular passenger vehicle but it is the only vehicle we have that has anything that resembles a back seat. Needles 98 Dakota extended cab doesn't count because if you set in the back you have to seat sideways. Anyway several months ago I was putting the back seat in the Jeep and dropped a clip down between the bracket and fender. I tried to remove the bracket only to snap off the bolts. Insert multiple 4 letter words here. After calming down the rear seat was unusable so I decided that one day I would just get rid of it and that would be it. Of course several times since then we have needed a vehicle that could haul more than 2 people. I finally found a friend, lets call him "J " to get the bolts out as they were dangerously near hard brake lines and figured I would screw it up and end up having to have the Jeep towed to a shop to get the brake lines fixed. So now the bolts are out and I am on the search to find ones to fit and fix the bracket so I can once again have a back seat for passengers. When I arrived home I noticed another one of my friends, lets call him "G" in the driveway. "G" is a friend to "J" also. "J" called "G" to tell him that he had left his cell phone on the front bumper of my Jeep. When I pulled in the cell phone was still perched on the front bumper.....Luckily. I drove several miles on not to smooth of roads and was amazed it survived the trip. Anyway the bolts are out the phone is returned and all is well.....For now.

Wow, he was lucky. The way I drive it would have been on the road in about 3 minutes.
