Replacement of Seat Upholstery

Model: Vauxhall Zafira Zafira A, MK 1, T98 - Years 1999-2005
Part: Seat

Many car manufacturers offer official replacement upholstery for seats, especially for models with side airbags integrated into the seat (the upholstery tears after deployment). To replace the seat upholstery, you need to remove the seat: unscrew the seatbelt anchor bolt and the four seat fixing bolts; disconnect the connector located under the seat and remove it from the cabin. Once the seat is on a workbench, remove the plastic covers on the sides, detach the clips securing the upholstery to the edges of the seat to remove it. Then, fit the new upholstery by attaching the edges to the seat frame.
