morson4x4:
Hello i got sum new seats for my discovery 200 series an want to put my new ones in how do i take old ones out thx :grin:
chris9119:
Ummmmmm, un bolt them...... :doh:
There bolted through the floor.
Are the new ones straight replacements? If not, you will have to make up some new rails.
discowoman:
also is it a 3 or 5 door?
4 bolts on front seats - also 4 holding the runners onto base
rear seat has 4 catches holding the front to the floor - the rear is catches that just click in....I am ripping mine out soon to replace with a RR interior!
Range Rover Ron:
The three door and five door front seats are set up differently to allow for the front seat to be moved forward for access on the three door.
The rear set are the same and you will probably find that the bolts are rusted in and you will have to snap off the bolts,
if you're lucky they will move,
try and douse the nuts & bolts in WD40 every day for a week before you try to move them,
then you might get lucky and get them to screw out.
The five door front seats shoud be quite easy as they fit onto a interior frame and do not go through the floor.
The three door is different as the seats are bolted to the floor.
good luck,
Ron.

3 door seats are on a seperte frame, and as such DO NOT bolt directly to the floor - they bolt to the tilting subframe - which in turn bolts into th floor (2 captives -and 2 with nuts)
