To remove the rear seats of the Audi A3, first extract the isofix attachments for the child seat (where present). Only then can you pull out the rear seat base, which is installed using a clip system, without screws or bolts holding it in place.

Once removed from the cabin, take off all the covers shown in the video to expose the torx screws and the 17 mm bolts that you need to undo to free the backrests. Finally, remove the clips from the backrests and take them out of their position.
