This particular car I am working with is a 1997 BMW 540i sedan with non fold down rear seats. So if you do have rear fold down seats, the procedure is different. #BMW540i Tools/Supplies Needed: -12mm socket -3/8” ratchet -3” extension Procedure: -start by pulling up the rear seat bottom -there will be clips on both sides, so you need to go to each side of the vehicle -slip your hand under the cushion and pull up hard -once unclipped, then pull the seat forward so the seat belt latches are removed from their pockets -lift out -there will be two bolts exposed which holds the rear seat into place that are located at the bottom on the sides of the car -these are a 12mm and there is one on each side -these can be easily accessed using a 3/8” drive ratchet and 3” extension -the seat back needs to be lifted straight up to disconnect the tabs -the seat belts may hold it back slightly so you can pull them out if need be -once the seat is loose, then pull the seat belts out and tuck them behind the seat back -this just helps for removal so it doesn’t catch up -reinstallation in reverse of removal Thank you to all those who watch my videos and support my content.
