How to Remove the Rear Seats from the Subaru Outback

Model: Subaru Outback BS, MK 5 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Seat

Below are the instructions that will allow you to remove and replace the rear seats of the Subaru Outback. First, open the rear doors of the vehicle and start pulling and lifting the rear bench seat to remove it from the cabin; then, also remove the seat backs by unscrewing all the fastening screws found at the base, as shown in the video. Tilting only the seat backs allows you to significantly increase the load space in the boot; then refit the seats by applying the reverse procedure!
