Removing seats

[S550ilver]

Difficult? Pics? How many plugs are under the front seat? I assume 1 but I may be wrong. And the back seats..pics? Or how many bolts holds them in. Taking them out to get upholstered.

Also, any pics of removing the door panels? Thanks in advance

Fairly easy and pretty straight forward.

FRONT SEATS: Pry off the x4 plastic bolt covers. Unbolt seats. Remove headrests by pressing both buttons and pull the headrest straight up. Tilt seat back to remove connectors on the bottom. My base GT has 1 connector, premium might have 2.

REAR BOTTOM SEAT: Feel for x2 tabs under the seat cusion. Push tabs in until the seat pops up a bit. Pull entire seat out.

REAR SEATBACKS: You'll see a bolt holding each seatback in place. Unbolt it and shimmy it out of it's center hinge. No need to remove the center hinge bracket.

DOOR PANELS: Look under the door panel and unbolt the x2 7mm bolts. Use a trim pry tool to remove the window switch trim piece to get access to a 10mm bolt. I used a small L-shaped allen wrench to remove the plastic trim panel behind the chromed door release handle, unbolt the 10mm bolt. starting from the bottom of the door panel, forcefully pull on it to release the the clips surrounding the perimeter. Unclip ~3-4 connectors and the door handle release cable.

Very easy to do, just start wrenching and there's a few plugs to undo and you're done.

You can pop them out in 2 minutes per seat. 4 bolts per seat and a plug or two and you're done.

Thanks looks pretty easy then. Also, on the door panels, there isn't a way to JUST get off those inserts without removing the entire door panel is there? No biggy removing the panels, just wondering if you can remove those inserts without taking the entire door panel off.

Definitely have to remove door panels. Inserts are plastic welded on.

Ah ok, so when I get them reupholstered, the upholstery shop will somehow re-adhere them after recovering?

 

[Moddiction]

Yeah assuming they know what they are doing.
