tommy10101 Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 HI all, i want to remove my rear seats on a seat arosa 1999 1.0s. I have managed to get the bit you sit on off, but i need to know how to get the back rests off. I have opened the hook to the open position but how do u disconnect them from the center (between the two seats by the seat belts). Please help...thaanks style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one litre wonder ;) Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 (edited) its difficult to describe , basically you can see the clip that holds the bit you need off in , push the clip round and you will see a raised bit on the clip , pry that carefully over the top of the seat bracket and it will pop offedit* but id wait till somebody else confirms till you do it its been that long since i have done it Edited June 10, 2007 by one litre wonder ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 with the clip removed from centre lift the outer side of the seat up and slide the whole thing out over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardaft Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 There is a funny clip in the middle. You need to get a screw driver and prise out the centre of the clip from the seat, then it will pop off. Its very hard to explain, but take a good look and you will see what i mean.

There didnt seem to be a lot of weight in the seats really, backs are heavier than the bases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also, the spare wheel does weigh a tonne lol...thats the best thing to get rid of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
