I want to make some...interesting modifications to my interior, but I don't see an easy way of removing the seatback for the rear bench seat. Granted, I haven't pulled off all the plastic yet. The seat bottom doesn't look difficult, but I just don't see any apparent seatback retaining bolts. Anyone know what I'm missing here?

 

TIA!

Scoob:

I don't know the EA81's very well, but on the latter models, the seatback pivots on a mount near the bottom edges. If you remove the lower seat cushions, you should be able to access the mounts.

BTW, I like the idea of re-working the cargo area. People used to do stuff like that with vans and station wagons back in the 70's. Even small cars like Pinto's and Gremlins...

Make sure you post some pix when you're finished.

good luck, John

To remove the rear seat you have to remove the two screws in the front of the lower seat. They may blend in with the carpet. Now with those out the seat should lift up in the front and lift out. If it doesn't you will find a bracket between the two seats. Take these two bolts out and the seat backs will come out. Then the rest of the lower seat will.
