Removing Front Seats From M35 Axis To Change Seat Button Modules

[ECR33_RB25DET]

Hi fellow Stag owners,

Maybe this has been covered, I'm sure it has somewhere, I couldn't find the detailed thread hence posting this one.

Sorry if it's a repeat.

I need to remove the front Axis seats to replace the seat adjusting modules.

How do I remove the plastic trim located on the rear of each seat rail, they sit on the carpet and clip into the rear of the seat rails in a very weird ar$e way that makes them a ball breaker to remove. I can take a chisel and hammer to them but for the original cosmetic I'd like to remove and refit.

They just slide backwards mate.

Do you have the buttons Pete?

I have a spare seat here. All electrics working.

Definitely tried this Scott. The plastic trims that are fixed to the rear of the seat rails don't appear to simply slide off backwards...

All good Chris. I have new modules for drivers and passenger seat.

They should just slide out backwards, they have a little clip so I used a screwdriver and they just pop out.

Is that your way of saying you would like me to do the job?

Pissermoff and put in some Recaros, the stock seats are like a park bench... With a heater.

I would love to pissermoff and put in some R35 GTR seats buts thats a big expense. Yes the stock are not the most comfy but they are leather...
