oh man i got so sick of the buzzing from the back speakers so i switched it to the front only. but its ben a few weeks sence i did it so i switched it back and BAG craptastic speakers again. so i did what anyone of us would have and i riped out the back seats and took some photos incase anyone wanted to try and is just as clueless as i am.

step one: remove bottom 2 bolts red arrows are pointing to

step three: after removeing the bolts in step B you have to pull the top of the seat up to remove it. there are red arrows showing where the bars that hold the seat in place and a red line witch is a strip of velcrow witch is attached to the armrest and if you over look it you will be pissed like i was. just remove it and pull the rest of the seat up

step D: remove the plastic that should be in the photo dont just rip it out you have to be firm but gentle after you get the section by the door out. stick you hand in behind the plastic trim and pull it off the rest of the way take off both sides

step 5: unscrew the 3 baby seat bolt things once you get them lose enough turn them like in the photo and life will be a breaze . there are 3 spacers on the bolts so just look out for them idk if they can get lost if you drop them but once they are out just remove the black cover

step F: not really a step but just rember to stack everything nice and neat pile so you dont ruin the seats or plastic trim

Step 7: this is what you are going to see so now you can remove the screws holding the speakers in place

and here is the reasion for my craptastic sound in the back of my car

post-82316-0-39873800-1303890494_thumb.jpg

and thats it just rember to put every thing back in reverse and i hope this will help some one. and no i dont know what size the bolts are sorry

this is missing hints like cussing about how the complaince guys bolted the baby bolts in the car. and smashed the speaker grills by slamming bolts thru them, its like that ona few cars.

and this only covers sedans, the coupe is different slightly

Well I'm lucky cuz they didn't ruin my speaker's. I was swearing just not too much witch was a surprise to me. I only have the sedan so sorry I can't help with the coupe. When I upgrade I will do another how to but that won't be any time soon

Lol, nice post.

I tried this myself on the weekend before reading this thread and ran out of time.

Experimented with some randoms screws, eventually got the bottom seat out, then the back seat out.

But I got stuck on Step D (Step 4) removing the rear column door trim and then I had to go prepare for dinner.

Any tips for getting it out?

It has like a small two hole cutout with one plastic looking blue screw covered with the trim felt colour.

Thanks

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
