DB9 Rear seats and parcel shelf removal
Discussion
I'm gradually working my way through my jobs on my new-to-me DB9. I'm now on to chasing down some rattles (which can be a never-ending job I know...)
There are two that definitely need sorting:
First one is the leather dash panel covering the air bag on the passenger side dash which is vibrating at quite low speed. Aston1936 on YouTube seems to have some good step-by-step videos on how to remove that, so I'll give it a go and make sure the various bolts are tight and will add some padding/felt tape as needed (being v careful with the air bag area).
The second one is coming from behind the driver somewhere, so I suspect it will need me to chase it for a while! Could anyone point me to a good step-by-step guide/photos/videos to removing the back seats and various leather panels/parcel shelf? I've heard that a loose parcel shelf is a common source of rear rattles, so would like to methodically work my way round with my trusty sticky pads and roll of felt tape. I suspect taking all the panels out is easy when you know how, but lots will require force being applied in the correct direction to avoid damage e.g. some will need pulling away, whilst some will need sliding up to free them from their mountings.
Thanks for any help in advance

This was me under a different name. Since this, I haven't heard a peep from the rear shelf
