How to remove the rear seat of a Mini One

Model: Mini Mini F56, F57, F54, F55 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Rear bench seat

In this video, we can see how it is possible to remove the rear seat of a Mini One: we enter the car from the passenger side and pull up the seat with force, removing it from its stops. We remove the seat from the car and focus on the backrest, which is divided into two halves 50/50. We leverage the central mechanism until the pin that holds the backrest in place comes out, first on one side and then the other. Now we also remove the backrest from the other side of the attachment, keeping it as horizontal as possible. We repeat the process with the other half of the backrest. Operation completed.
