Removing Rear Seats from a Classic Fiat 500

Model: Fiat 500 Epoca - Years 1957-1975
Part: Seat

Removing the rear seats in a classic Fiat 500 is a task that anyone can do, regardless of their experience. The seat consists of two parts: the backrest and the base, with the former being foldable as needed. To remove both, start by taking off the base, which is secured to the car by two hooks on the sides; simply lift it with a slight upward force and then slide it forward. Now, free the backrest by removing the clip on the top buckle and lifting the upholstery; you will notice brackets securing the seat to the floor. Tilt the seat and slide it to the side to release it.
