ne 1 gt ne pics?

yeah that sounds rite. my dad helped me with mine n i cant fully remember but there was the bolt, whether it was allen or one that needs a socket but then the chairs just slid back and off. the rear ones are piece of piss. dead simple. the only thing i cant seem to get off my car. same model as urs is the dash and the front door cards. can get everything off except the winders..

If you look on the floor there are some black plastic trims over the seat runners. First you need to remove these. Once you've got them off you need to remove the bolts that are under the front part of the seat. Once you've removed them slide the seat back till it comes off the runners. Sometimes it won't come straight out cause it'll get caught on the carpet. So it if doesn't tilt the seat forward using the handle as if you were letting someone in the back and just see where its caught and then move whatever its caught on to get it out.

Sounds complicated but its not. Essentially all you are doing is sliding the seat backwards. But because the bolt isn't there it comes off the runner.

Door cards just pop off lol? Yank the bottom of the doorcards where the sorage pocket is and it should pop off, then prise it away from the door. Pop the cover off the door handle and remove the 2 screws, and disconnect the mirror adjuster, sorted.

hi guys

i would appreciate it if any one could get some pics of what bolts needed to be opened as i really confused my self today

thanks pps

much appreciated

Remove the 2 plastic parts at the side of each seat, that cover up all the grease..

Now try and slide the seat back out, you'll notice a bolt at the front of the seat that stops it going all the way out.

It's right by the lever that slides the seat back.

The back seats. I managed to get the bit your bum goes on out easily but the back rest part I can't get unsecured from the hinge in the middle.

If its the the same as a 6n..

there is a thin clip with a pin bit that pushes in to the middle of the mount/hinge, get a thin flat head screw driver and pull the pin out of the hole then bash it down and it will pop out, dont loose the clips!. Its a bit hard to explain.

Want these out but can't do it. Please help.

Invest in a Haynes Manual.

Piece of piss with one of those.
