Operation 3 Rear seat - removal & replacement
The rear seat cushion is retained by press and stud fasteners at each
end of the cushion. The rear squab hinges are riveted to the body
floor.
To remove
1. Unclip the cushion retaining straps and remove the cushion
from the vehicle.
2. Unhook the tonneau cover lifting straps
3. Using a 5.56 mm (7/23 in) drill, remove the heads of the
rivets securing the seat squab hinges to the floor.
4. Tap out the rivet shafts and remove the squab assembly
from the vehicle.
Both the squab and cushion are available as assemblies only so no
further dismantling is recommended.
The squab retaining straps however, can be replaced by detaching the
fixing clamp from the back board, secured by two screws.
The two abutment brackets which support the seat squab in the
raised position are secured to the body by means of screws that also
retain the trim panels.
Replace the seat and components in reverse order, securing the back
board hinges to the floor with six 4.76 x 16.51 (0.188 x 0.65 in) rivets.

having suffered extreme stress in an accident, the belt must be
renewed.
