Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to remove the rear seat of a Mercedes A-Class or B-Class, or a CLA or GLA: first, we lower the backrest, remove the 17 hexagonal screws at the base, at the back. We then lift the backrest again and remove the isofix attachments, for which we must first remove the covers by pressing on the sides with a screwdriver to release them from their housing.

Inside there are 16 screws that need to be removed. In the center, there is a 30 torx, once unlocked we can remove the backrests.

This allows us to see the other screws including those of the central safety belt, which allows us to also remove the attachment: we must be very careful with the electrical connectors. Now we just have to remove the seat, which is already free at the back, while for the front part we have to grab it with our hands and pull forcefully upwards.
