REAR SEAT BASE REMOVAL

1

Detach the plug and socket for the middle rear seatbelt. Insert a pin or long thin nail into the seatbelt socket as shown here to release the seatbelt. This is essential to be able to remove the rear seat base.

2

Pull up the front of the rear seat base and look for two securing tags. Press down on these securing tags with your fingers to release the seat base from them. This can be quite awkward to do.

3

The rear seat base should now be loose, so try to move it. The seatbelt sockets will restrict its movement, so push down on them to help release the seat base and move it around. This may take a little time to complete.

Once the seat base is completely free, carefully lift it out of the car. It’s not heavy, but it is awkward to manoeuvre. Watch the metal parts underneath because they can scratch the paintwork.
