To put it in more detail...

1. Pop bottom part of back chair of, its just clipped in at two points... sometimes need encouragement with a leaver.

2. Undo to bolts at bottom of upright part of chair, use a socket, as the screwdrivers always seem to strip.

3. Lift top part of chair, Its secured by three hooks, lift and move seatbelts out of the way.

4. Pop out the parcel shelf.

Reverse order to put back, careful with putting back top part of seat on three hooks, as they then to bend if seat is put on wrong.

thanks guys! managed to get it out without removing the seat which was good. i don't really understand the purpose of those clips on the shelf though. they didn't seem to be clipping into anything! oh well, looks fine.

quick question though, what's the point of those brackets that sit over the speaker? obviously they're there for the big black things on top of the speaker grills to bolt into, but what're they for? i just left them off for the time being. cheers!

THIS is the method i would advise you to use.

Um I have had the parcel shelf out on various R32's & never once removed the rear seat. You just grap the cushion & pull it forward whilst you lift the various sections of parcel shelf. It is only timber anyway so will flex quite a bit.

this however is not.

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
