HELP PLEASE: How to remove R32 Rear seat

[Murry33]

Hello i'm trying to remove a r32 rear seat in order to put 6.5in speakers in?

How do i get the damn rear seat out lol, whats the trick to it, like which bit do you start at?.....etc etc

And are 6.5 inch speakers easy to put in the parcel shelf, like to screw in to place?

Thanks much appreciated!!!!!!! :wizard:

1. 6.5" Speakers are factory hence screw straight in

2. Remove base of seat first, fold and slide front seat forward, jam your leg in there and using your knee for force push back on the seat, whilst putting downward pressure on it with your hands, it should pop up and out as you release it. You can then remove both screws from the bottom of the backseats backrest and remove that, the shelf should slide out.

Enjoy

Actually having said that I had to jam a flat head screw driver into the drivers side of the backseat base to remove it as it was very tight to remove

all this for speakers, this is why i gave up on changing mine

omg i can't get them off lol where did you jam the screw driver, i pushed down and lifted up is that right?

It's pretty easy champ - basically your seat sits on some "doobies" your seats just have some hooks.

Before you do this the seat will be jammed in to stop the shove upwards in the normal course of thing so push it in at the base as you shove it up. Atleast that's how it is on the cef.

Someone mentioned some screws I didn't have any of those but remember the seat was pretty easy to get out just by feeling around and pushing certain angles on it. I would try just using your instincts if all else fails, this is one of those jobs you can do just as well without instructions.

Good luck

there should be two bolts holding the seat down on bottom left and bottom right.. if they're not there, your seat isn't be held in correctly!

but yeah, just push in, and shove really hard upwards. You can also try maybe bending the sides of the seat in with your arms whilst pushing up.

omg lol afte reading all that and trying the above i found the easiest way to do it out of all.

Get a crowbar from your boot put the long peice of metal on under each corner (left+right) and pull up, the seats were out in 5 seconds!!!

I recommend this to anyone after trying like half an hour of the other technigues mentioned lol
