Rear Bench removal

(1/3) > >>

mixit:
Can anyone ( Jonnyc ) or anyone else that's done it, please give me some indication of how easy it is to remove the rear seat from an 06 GTi? Greenouse and I will be doing just that soon when we swap interiors and I'm a bit worried about needing any particular tools or knowledge.

Cheers in advance  :smiley:

You'll need some 6 pointed and 12 pointed star drives (torx?) can't remember the sizes.

There's a small one on the middle hinge for the upright, accessed from the boot and found under a plastic cover. Undo this and then pull off the metal bracket to release. Wiggle the upright's pins out of their slots in the sides of the car.

Then, you'll have to undo the bolt for the middle seatbelt, tricky to get at, but you'll see it.

Base just pulls out with a bit of a twist.

Actually, come to think of it I'm taking mine out tomorrow for the track day on Saturday. I'll get some pics and a decent guide.
