chrisan Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Sorry, I don't know the answer to your question. But have you managed to mount some TFT screens (or whatever) into the headrests. If so, can you give some more info on parts/installation? It sounds very interesting. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_C Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Yes, I've done this. Get a flat-headed screwdriver, cover it with a rag (to avoid scratching) and insert it into the top edge of the seat back at the corner. Gently prise the seat back away from the seat, moving the screwdriver towards the centre as you go. IIRC there are three metal clips holding the seat back in. Don't be scared to use a bit of brute force as the clips are quite tight. You should be able to get your fingers between the seat back and the seat at this point. When all the clips are out, pull the seat back up towards you - there are four or five plastic hooks holding it in place at the bottom. Reverse this process to refit, fitting the bottom edge first. I actually found this bit more difficult than the removal! Good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
