Part: Seat

In this tutorial we can see how to disassemble the rear seat backs in the Honda Civic, an extremely simple and fast operation. First of all, we open both the rear doors and the trunk, then we locate the indicated lever, pull it towards us, and at the same time lower the backrest. We then repeat the operation on the opposite side, move to the passenger side and unscrew the indicated fixing bolts with a 12mm socket wrench. At this point, all that remains is to remove the backrest from the cabin and, in the same way, disassemble the driver's side one.
