W211
Having owned a 2003 w211 for over a year which ran faultlessly, I have recently purchased a 2006 facelift estate version.
The car was in need of a bit of love and the half leather interior had seen better days. Having procured a full black leather interior including door cards from ebay, I started looking today how to actually fit the thing.
The front seats look straight forward enough with just the 4 bolts and the seatbelt to remove, before swapping the wiring loom.
The door cards again look relatively straight forward and the back seat base is a doddle. However, I cannot for the life of me see how to remove the seatbacks. Can anyone help please?
Are there any other obvious pitfalls that I need to be aware of?
Look forward to any help that can be given.
Thanks,
Neil.

I have sent you an Email. Quite a few things to remove first.

Does this help? I could not work out how to extract from WIS as one document, hence 4 pictures.

Martin.
