The seats of the BMW Series 1, how do you remove them?

Model: BMW Serie 1 E81, E82, MK 1, E87 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Seat

Do you need more cargo space in your BMW 1 Series, or do you want to clean them or repair a damage to the upholstery? Whatever the reason, here’s a short but comprehensive video guide that practically shows you how to remove them: at the front, under the seat, there is a lever to pull, and by doing so, we will release the lock, freeing the entire seat. We do the same for the backrests; here too we find a release lever, we pull it, and that's it. The entire seat is free and ready to be pulled out of the cabin.
