Mr ColinG Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 At the bottom outside corners there is a latch, you need to push that round with a screwdriver until you can see the part of the seat frame, in the centre there are spring clips that you need to ping off, lift the outside first then remove from the middle job done,The bases are just metal rods that you squeeze together to release.

RobG Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 This is what a (knackered) clip looks like. I wasn't very clever when taking it out. I've not had any trouble with seats coming loose after i didn't put it back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete91 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 I lost my clips Don't think it's a biggy not having them in. I took mine out and haven't got round to putting them back in and it's been about 4 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobG Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 mine have been out 3-4 years with no problems at all. Actually it's better, because you can whip the rear seats out in under 10 mins and make for a rather large carrying area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
