    Afternoon all,

    Thank you for those who replied to the speaker advise. I have a temporary solution in place but now am after a step by step guide to how to remove the back seats and parcel shelf. Anyone done it before and got any advise/guidance?

    Kind regards,

    Henry

    Hi Henry,

    I saw a man from the RAC do this on my car many years ago when he disabled an RAC Tracker that was faulty (that’s where the RAC place trackers, under the rear seats).

    To get the seat backs off  he pressed the top of the seat down whilst pulling it out at the same time. It seemed as if it was just  metal spring clips holding it in place. It did seem that a lot of pressure was required.

    You may need to talk to one of the specialists just to confirm this before you damage anything. I have also asked a friend who may have removed his seats in the past for advice.

    Hello, here are the photos from when I dis-connected the tracker, according to the diagrams it looks the same for the 3200, 4200 & GS.

    Best wishes

    Hi Graham and Tony,

    Thanks for the photos and description from the RAC experience.

    From what I can see the two metal clips at the top were not in place but didn’t seem as easy as to just pull it out. Do you think there will be clips at the bottom of the back rest as well?

    There is a plastic clip that holds the cushion down, as you can see it will probably break when you pull up. I managed to get a similar one from eBay. The backrest should just pull away, I had to give a bit of a heave as it sits quite low so you sort of have to pull up and back in a jerk movement.
