Default 2GS Backseat removal. Pls help!

Hello,

I am ready to install my eclipse DD and would like to know if there are any hints on removing the back seat.

I would like to know if the seat belt latches are necessary to be removed inorder for it to break loose.

I removed the seats already... seat belt holder on the top... and the 4 bolts. my car is a virgin so i don't know if it is tight or if i need to remove the seat belt latches to get the top (back) portion off.

thanks.

Take out the headrest and flip up the leather cover. There should be a 12mm bolt in there that needs to be taken out.

The seat belt latches do not need to be removed. I take mine out though simply because it's easier for me to pull the seat out. You can do it either way.

great thanks. i knew i was missing something. also any hints on removing the rear dash?

I think the following parts have to be removed.
- Center Brake Light Cover
- Left and Ride C Pillars

any thing else?

Thank you.
