| Just did this and it's not that hard.
Remove the plastic cover (phillips screws). Remove bolts (front and back). Undo sliding latch cable (slides out at 90 degrees from verticle) Seat lifts out easily.
This removes seat. To remove the channel that the seats slid on you have to 1. remove plastic caps on either end (they have phillps screw heads but you must pry them off from underneath as it's not actually a screw) 2. pull the plastic T strips that run the length by pulling them up 3. undo the bolts that fasten the track to the body. One at either end in the channel then 7 (?) more along the sides on the track.
Totoal job took about an hour. Good luck. | |

| Cheers - that doesnt sound too bad - shouldn't need to remove the sliders it's just i have a habit of picking up motorbikes occasionally and it would be nice to be able to get them in the van instead of having them half hanging out the back of my landrover! | |

| Can you get the mechanism which the seat is bolted to out of the sliders easily? | |

| Nope (at least not w/ the 1991). I tried several different ways. It would be really practical if you could.
Perhaps w/ your 93 it's possible? | |

| Does anyone know (on a 93/4 sc) what the removable bit is at the left hand front end of the rear seat slide channel is for? | |

| I believe it is to stop the seat being pushed too far forward for the child restraint anchor points.
I have removed the rear seat, and you can get the seat mounts off the tracks by removing the tracks as described by zoochy. Then remove circlip from pins at the front of each track, remove pin and slide seat slider mechanism out. Replace tracks in slots on floor and it is a neat job.
Incidentally....the seat is a two man lift. Extra weight (approx 80kg) to carry around if not in use. | |
