Disconnect the battery, negative (black) lead first.
4.
Remove the battery as described in the service manual.

Invert the rear seat and place on a clean non-abrasive
surface.

Note the position of the markings for the reed-switch
magnet fixing screws on the underside of the seat, as
shown below.
1. Area for reed-switch magnet
2. Fixing hole positions
7.
Carefully drill a hole into each marked position using a
1 mm diameter drill.
Note:
•
Read the warning notices printed on the cleaning
wipe packet in the fitting kit.
•
The surfaces to which the reed-switch and
reed-switch magnet are affixed must be clean
and dry to ensure that the adhesive has a sound
base to adhere to. Use the cleaning wipe
supplied for this purpose.
8.
Peel off the backing strip from the adhesive pad on the
reed-switch magnet.
9.
Align the reed-switch magnet to the fixing holes on the
underside of the seat. Apply firm and even pressure to
the magnet to ensure a good bond is achieved. Secure
using the self-tapping screws supplied.
Note:
•
Ensure that the magnet is fitted in the
orientation shown below.
1. Rear seat
2. Reed-switch magnet
3. Screws
10.
Remove the tail panel as described in the service
manual.
Caution
Only drill through the hard plastic base of the seat. Take
care not to drill into any part of the rear seat cushion as
this would result in irreparable damage to the rear seat.
Caution
When fitting self-adhesive parts care must be taken to
ensure positioning is correct and accurate. Once the
adhesive has been attached to the mounting surface, there
is no satisfactory method of removal and re-positioning if
incorrectly aligned. Initial bonding is instant, full bonding is
achieved after 72 hours.
