Hi all,
Sorry to be a pain but can't find the link to removing all the seats in a 5th gen. Have brought some si seats from @PreludePete and am getting them restored so, need to remove all seats so I can install the new covers. Thanks for your time.

Kind regards

Curt

The fronts are bolted in at each corner of the seat bases/rails. There is one cable for the seat belt plugged into the each front seat and a second cable if they contain heated elements.

Regarding the rear seats i have no idea as i have never removed them but i assume the base would be typical pull upwards jobby (possibly one or two bolts also), and the rear backrest will be bolted at the bottom and hooked in at the top in its clasps to stop it folding down.

Thanks Tom, much appreciated

If the back seats are at all like on a 4g, there are hidden spring catches that you need to open before pulling the base up.

Have a look in the 5g service manual and that will explain all...

prise the trim off the bolt holes then 4 14mm bolts on the front seats and unplug a clip.

Rear seats you have to push down hard on the front corners. Well a few inchs in from the corners, then grab the clip under the foam edge and pull out the clip as you lift.
The seat backing is just 2 10mm bolts near the hips as the seats are folded down.

5g rear seats the same as 4g then...
