Changing Seats

Post by aparker »

Does any one know how easy it is to charge all of the seats and how to do it?

The seats are easy to change. The fronts are held in place with a bolt at the front of each seat (in the middle) and two plastic strips which cover the seat runners. These pull off with a little oomph, they pop off, but don't pull 'em too hard or they'll break.

The back seats are held in with 6 bolts. Two on the base and four on the backrest. Lift the base up, take the two screws out and it comes straight off, then fold the backrest down, take the four screws out and lift that out.

Hope that answers your question!

Forgot to say, once you take the bolts out of the front of the front seats pull up the lever that allows the seat to slide backwards and forwards and push the seat back till it drops out of the runners.

When you're putting them back in you need to line up the pin that holds the seat in place, not difficult but it's fiddly.

anyone got clues on repairing the seat tilt mechanism? the wires have snapped on the "far" side of both my front seats (ie further from the handle)
