Lift the rear seats by pulling them upwards and detaching them from the back. As clearly shown in the video, detach the side plastics located behind the seatbelts.

Unscrew the bolts securing the seats, then go to the boot and remove the lower cover. Now you can also unscrew the bolts securing the seats from the back.

Fold the seatbacks forward and remove them from the vehicle after unhooking them from the side mounts. As you can see, this operation takes time but is not particularly complex.

Proceed in reverse for reassembly. Goodbye!

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?
