hi there,got no response to my previous post about fitting aftermarket heated seat elements to repair non working seat base,so could anyone tell me how to get the seat cover (base) off please and i am going to have a go at replacing or repairing it.the car is a 56 plate slk 200 r171.thankyou very much,regards simon.

 

I am in exactly the same situation. Any further information would be most welcome. I am in the process of installing the workshop manual so if I learn anything I'll let you know.

Edit: I just realised, this is a 1 year old thread (2013 duh!). Oh well.

 

I can help you both with the instructions to remove the covers

 

Thank you television. I will PM you my email address.

 

Hi,

I have exactly the same problem. As it's my wife's car I feel the need to make a decent job of it and would really appreciate the seat cover removal instructions.

thanks in advance
Derek

 

I will try and find the info for you, the seat will have to come out.

 

can this link be sent to me please as my driver side seat is not heating up

 

Unfortunately Malcolm (Television) passed away a few years ago,
I would open a new thread with your issue and someone should be able to help

 

thanks for your reply sorry to hear about Malcolm

 

There's a chance that @LostKiwi may be able to help as I believe he may have access to some/all of Malcolm's documents.
