Removing front seats??

[Torretto]

Anyone Know how you get these out of a MK 1 172 There are no Star nuts!!!??

 

[Sir_Dave]

Get underneath, the nuts are under the exhaust heatshield in the middle & behind some rubber bungs for the outside ...

They bolt down through the floor. Look through my Cup project thread & theres a how to in there

 

[Torretto]

Thank you!!!

 

[danjf]

is this the same for all clios as iv got this pleasure to come!!

 

[Bluebeard]

Yep. The same for all Clio's 1998 onwards.

When removing the front seats is it best to disconnect the battery?

 

[Bluebeard]

No need.

 

[maynard]

Some will say yes due to the risk of the side airbag's in the seats going off, but many on here don't bother.

 

[Clio-Ell]

No need.

Looking to give my car a good clean. I thought maybe the airbags would go off as i presume thats what the wires under the seats are for but no seat airbags.

If you've no seat airbags then they're seatbelt pre tensioners.

Either way, you'll be fine dude.

Keep the car another year so going to clean it properly with a wet vaccum. Searched the forum and the vax's are favourite but costly so im going to hire one.
