Question How to remove back seats?

Hey guys,

I am adding a Bazooka in the trunk and I will be running my power line to the trunk.

Somebody tell me how to remove the seats, please?

And while you are at it, how do you remove the panels along the way?

I will be using an "add a circuit" connector coming from the fuse panel below our steering column.

Thanks in advance.

Mandy

The easiest way to remove the backseat is with a crowbar. lol. j/k

I assume you mean the bench right? I think you just pull up the back all the way from in between the crack. It should come up all the way and unhook.

there is one screw in the middle ( theres 2 but only one needs to be taken out) its easier to take both out, they are 10 mm take them out then lift on the back part hinging forward and then lift up to take outif you need the back part out there is a screw(also 10mm) on each side then just lift and pull out

Is that for the bench or for the actual back seat?

me either... if you work on your car on a sunny day outside. Just pull bak the side of the seat and look towards yoru trunk. If you take out the carpeting and plastic spare tire cover you should be able to see light. Just stick a coat hanger in there and get a budy to tug the other end when you put your power cable on the end :-D

when they were installing my pro kits, they had to take out my seats. i remember there was one bolt in the middle of the seats that had to be taken out. the backing just poped right out.

OK, thanks guys.

But, help me one more time.....

How do I tell what's positive and negative on the speaker wires?

Somebody please tell me!

I will tap on the rear speakers for my input to my bazooka sub. I got everything set up and then, I do not know what goes to where and so I went to an Audio place yesterday, they want $100 to get my bazooka installed, S.hit!

BAck to ground zero....

thanks....
