How to remove the rear seats

Post by TriggerFish »

Hi all,

I'm gonna need to try and remove the rear seat backs soon, as I've got something new to go in there. I've tried once before, and failed miserably, and was wondering if any of you guys knew how?

Thanks!
Joe

The back bottom bench flips up and you bend the bar that holds it on to clear the clips the bar runs through.

The back seat rests, if you fold them down and look at the bottom where the seats join each other, there is a metal lump, using a flat bladed screwdriver, turn the clips inside the metal lump which will release the seat from its fixing, then just lift them out and job done.

The way to remove them is difficult to explain without pictures but it is an easy job

Got them out. (Well, my dad did, I can't lift anything since straining my wrist. :roll: )

Many thanks Neil! :D
