How to remove the front seats in the Skoda Octavia?

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 3, 5E - Years 2012-2019
Part: Seat

In this tutorial, we will see how to remove the front seats in the Skoda Octavia, a process that is extremely simple and quick. Before proceeding, let's open the hood and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to avoid accidental airbag deployment. We start by opening the door on the side we will be working on, then we move the seat back and, using an M10 wrench, we unscrew the two front bolts of the brackets. Next, we move the seat forward, unscrew the rear bolts as well, and disconnect the indicated connector. At this point, all that’s left is to remove the seat from the cabin.
