E34 Rear Seats

[buz413 1]

wonder if you guys can help me,

but how do you get to the battery under the rear seats of a 535?

i can't find a way to lift the back seats out, is there a bolt or leaver i have to undo/unclip?

any help would be much appreciated!

cheers,

Hey mate no worries

Easy once you know. Grab the front edge and wrench it straight up! Be a man about it There is a clip each side that you'll probably have to pop free one at a time. So about the middle of each rear seat passenger's thighs is where they're located.

Once both sides popped, seat slides forward a little then out. Installation is the reverse of removal!

Have a go and let us know how you get on.

Cheers

I find getting the seat back in is more difficult than getting it out.You have to work at both sides and get the seat base far enough back so that the front spring clips are ready to go down into the slots at the front of the seat "frame".Then give a firm push downwards,the seat should be clipped into place.

I still can't get over the fact you plainly pull up hard. I was astonished a bmw would be something so simple to do (and I was afraid I'd break something).
