![]() Does anyone have any tips for the succuessful refitting of the rear seat base?
I have got the 2 fixings along the back edge of the seat in place but can't get the 2 front fixings caught, and I thought this would be the easy part! Cheers, Karl. |

![]() Cheers Ronnie, I'll probably end up breaking all round me..!
Do they really require a lot of force to get them home? I think I've got the spring slots lined up with the pegs, but it's hard to tell for sure as I can't see when the seat is almost there.. Cheers, Karl. |

![]() There is a how to some where, it involves using a broom handle, I spent ages trying to refit mine before I saw it.

![]() Thanks Peter, yeah I spotted that one. I actually had no problem getting the 'hook' clips in place along the rear most edge, it's the 2 simple 'push-in' clips along the front edge I can't get home - yet it looks so simple!
Particularly the clip on the drivers side as the seat base seems to sit a little higher on this side - I'm using lots of force for the type of clip involved, but just can't get it home :-( Cheers, Karl. |

![]() I got my missus to sit in the middle of the back seat to stop it springing back up,then went mental like Mighty Joe Young beating it with my arms(hands clasped),worked a treat although the missus said i looked like a demented chimp!
