Drivers who from time to time transport bulky goods in their cars often try to increase the interior space of the passenger compartment by dismantling the seats - both the second and the first row. Sometimes the dismantling of the seat is carried out for other reasons. In any case, it will be useful for every motorist to know how to remove the seats on their own, if the need arises.
- Tools in order to dismantle the seats, you will need the simplest - a knob, a socket wrench and 2 screwdrivers - a Phillips and a straight slot. You will spend no more than 15-20 minutes of your personal time on dismantling one seat.
- To remove the seats of the first row, you need to open the cover (the easiest way to do this with a flat screwdriver, prying the cover from above). Under the cover you will see a bolt that must be unscrewed and removed. Each seat is secured with four of these bolts, so after doing this four times, you will detach the seat from the base and can remove it.

In some cars, the second row seats are slightly more difficult to remove than the first row seats. But they also lend themselves to dismantling without much difficulty. First you need to unscrew the screws that hold the decorative plastic overlays and remove the decor. After that, the rear part of the lining must be bent back, slightly pushed to the left, and then fed forward in one motion and removed.
Perform all movements carefully and carefully so as not to damage the plastic parts of the seats. After performing this simple operation several times in a row, you will be able to perform it automatically in the future. When removing decorative parts, help yourself with a flat screwdriver, in no case applying excessive force. After removing the pads, unscrew the seat clips and remove them.
