Morning all,

I have to remove my drivers seat as it is going in for some TLC can someone tell me the easy way to remove it, this will hopefully save me removing ten more screws than is actually necessary.

TIA
Scott

Maybe the seat belt bolt will also need undoing?.

Thanks very much presumably this will also release the subframe ?? which should be removed afterwards, is this the case?

The seatbelt buckle is attached to the seat chassis, so as long as the seatbelt is unfastened the buckle will exit the car with the seat.

Be very careful as you take the seat out though... it is a bit of a bugger to get through the door appature without practice and the seat bolts that will be dangling from the runners can easily scratch the sill or ding the kick plate.

Have fun!

what about removing the seat backs ? Can you remove them in situ or do the seats have to come out for that ?
