Removing seats

[jim]

If I want to remove seats for re-trimming, are there any potential problems with electrical connections? Is it necessary to disconnect the battery before removal, for example? Doesn't seem to be anything in the guides about this.

Thanks to both for helpful replies. Much reassured and now tempted to go ahead (Don't tell her indoors, though! Think she'll notice Alezan leather after two years with black fabric? )

Try telling the missus you've just bought some seat covers that fit rather well

bleached by the sun jim - black fabric often turns a burnt orangey leather colour after two years, its a common zed fault

+1 your Mrs must think your zed is worth about £5k based on that logic

In the guide that GIXXER posted, it says that you have to disconnect the battery if the car has side impact air bags before disconnecting the block under the seats.. Do our JDMs have these?

no ours dont have these , but it's always best to disconnect the battery whenever unplugging a block connector as it may throw up a fault light

Thanks Tim. Always better safe than sorry!

Tim, I seem to remember that you trimmed the door armrests on yours. Is that right? Do you have pictures?

 

Edit - never mind, Tim - I found the thread with your door armrest pics. Looks great.
